yes, of course. But the job required may differ a lot for different 
geometry. The extra iterator facility could also be ineffeicient for some 
geometries. Plus, the behaviour of std::find_if is to return iterator for 
compare with end iterator, while some geometries do not natively support 
that.
So my point is "immediately return on success", something may look like"bool 
for_each_point/segament_until(g, pred)" to iterator until pred() return 
true.
