Subject: Re: [ublas] Move Semantics

Wouldn't changing vectors' operator = allow that?
From:
BOOST_UBLAS_INLINE
vector &operator = (const vector &v) {
data () = v.data ();
return *this;
}
to
// pass by value for move semantics
BOOST_UBLAS_INLINE
vector &operator = (vector v) {
data().swap(v.data()); return *this;
}
and maybe add some checks depending on storage type.

For example, if I took the following code: http://www.crystalclearsoftware.com/cgi-bin/boost_wiki/wiki.pl?LU_Matrix_Inversion and had it return a matrix instead, would that give overhead for large matrices?
