Hello,

I was wondering if I could suggest adding the ability to have separate 
allocators inside containers so that the structure (such as map) can be 
in a different shared memory region, or whatever, than the data. It 
would have variety of useful cases such as offline storage swapping out, 
inter-process communications, etc.

This can be realized by a bit of a hack with a bunch of boiler-plate 
code, but I think that this could be a very useful extension over what 
is available in the standard library.
