I've run into this problem as well, it's a real shame it doesn't work,
because if you would be able to use boost::combine with (C++17) structured
bindings, one can completely abstract away (if it would work) the
zip-iterator (you wouldn't see it even though that's what's happening under
the hood)...

PS: I did not report it because I wasn't sure the problem was not related
to the MS-implementation of structured bindings (this is a while ago), and
I did not want to attract anymore flak for being a ms-boy. It seems it
isn't then.
