 My impression is that the C++ community's thinking about Ranges in C++ has
 evolved a lot in the past couple of years. I think the state-of-the-art
 Ranges library is no longer Boost.Range, but Eric Niebler's
 [https://github.com/ericniebler/range-v3 Range-v3], which is now
 standards-track (forming the basis of the [http://open-
 std.org/JTC1/SC22/WG21/docs/papers/2016/n4569.pdf C++ Ranges TS]).

 Ranges-v3 does things a bit differently from Boost.Range, and solves this
 issue (among others).

 I'm not sure what the plan is for Boost.Range going forward. We could
 possibly borrow some ideas from Range-v3, such as its approach for solving
 this problem, and put them into Boost.Range. Or Range-v3 itself could be
 brought into Boost (not sure what Eric's plans are in that regard).
