 Currently, assigning or copying a fusion sequence of non const reference
 to another is not possible. Down into the code, the vectorN classes only
 has a vectorN( const Sequence& ) constructor that calls a const qualified
 from_sequence method from the base_type.

 Sequence of reference has a nice use case of enabling strcuture of
 array//Array of structure efficient application and this can't be doen
 with current Fusion.

 Could all sequence be amended so passing a non const sequence as
 initialisation is dealt with correctly ?
