Comment (by nathanridge):

 Replying to [comment:7 jwakely.boost@…]:
 > I see my request as analogous to the standard's requirement that a
 function shall not participate in overload resolution if it doesn't meet
 the required concepts. The size() member isn't a function template so
 can't use disable_if directly, hence my suggestion to move it to a base
 class that can be partially specialized, but I don't care how it's done, I
 just think it should be done.

 I started a thread on the boost mailing list about this topic:
 http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.boost.devel/238845


 Feel free to weigh in. I will implement the workaround if it has
 concensus.
