Yes, I've been considering an approach like that one for some of my
Python wrapping work. It does simplify things an awful lot, doesn't
it? It's certainly worth publishing that approach in the
documentation. I don't think it will work for the dereference
operators -> and [], which require a this pointer. Also, the iterator
helpers rely on inheritance from std::iterator.
