This is my position as well.
string_view is "dangerous" but you get a corresponding improvement in
power. It really isn't much different than calling async functions
with unowned buffers, e.g.:
std::string s;
sock.async_write_some( asio::buffer(s), ... );
There isn't any realistic way to protect from this which is why I
think that the proposed schemes for helping the users avoid shooting
themselves in the foot are not good solutions.
Thanks
