Hmmm - I'm pretty sure I read that.  On the paper I read, the third 
section I read is: "Motivation: Composite objects".  That's the end of 
it.  I guess that's OK for a standards proposal, but I think that Boost 
users expect more complete motivation and justification.  Examples are 
helpful here.  If it's better explained, one is likely to get more 
people willing to review it - which is better all around.

BTW - our custom is bottom posting here.
