Please notice that the Boost.SIMD proposal also have a couple of
aligned memory management functions. It may be a good idea to align (pun
intended) your proposal with these.

Why are there no allocator_traits?

Should there be support for placement new?

I assume that Boost.Align aspires to be a public library, not only to
be used internally, so I think that the documentation could be improved
with examples.

The documentation does not mention how much extra memory is wasted due
to alignment.
