I think the example needs to be more motivating :-).
Using normal vector:
for_each( svec.begin(), svec.end(), PolyPtrOps() );
Using your class:
for_each( pvec.begin(), pvec.end(), mem_fun_ref( &Poly::foo ) );
If saving writing a functor is all then we might as well use boost lambda or
bind:
for_each( svec.begin(), svec.end(), bind(&Poly::foo,_1) );
Yes, I read the advantages and they sound good; I just think you need an
example to show them off (and perhaps some benchmarks as you say it should
be quicker and use less memory than smart pointers).
