Yes, but allocations done by ublas (e.g., bounded_array) also have dynamic 
sizes. 

Isn't some of the information you're after identical to 
has_static_stride<T>? I.e., I guess has_static_stride<T> is identical to 
has_bounded_linear_array<T> or something like that.

Then, you can misuse containers having static strides all you want :-) ... 
but I would recommend doing stuff correct/strict the first time. Perhaps 
proposing a static_matrix and static_vector to ublas would be the way (if 
you want to stick to boost/ublas for your container needs)?
