My primary objection to this line of thinking is that the standard begin/end functions have the same dangerous implications as this function does. The input can be a string and the output is something that becomes invalid when that string is destroyed.
C++ doesn't have a good solution to this situation and clearly begin/end don't give an obvious indication.
