Agree. The only point where they may be necessary is for peer dependencies.
For instance, Boost Asio has a peer dependency on OpenSSL, but there are
plenty of uses that don't require it (it's not even in the convenience
header).

I'd advise against the global "boost" module. I don't think it adds
anything when you can "import boost.asio" and go.
