Hi Mateusz,

Yep, the range in question clearly follows the definition of a view (it's
light-weight, and accesses the points/segments lazily, by referring rather
than copying - for the segments views, I expect it to use a
referring_segment).

Note that we could also very well have a name that doesn't reflect whether
it's a range or view:

for_each(points_of(p), do_something_with_polygon_points);

Not sure if whether it's a view or a range should be exposed to the user...
And not sure if Boost has naming policy in this regard.

Regards
Bruno
