Discussion:
The library template forward_list
could easily model the idea of a stack
, where the operations work on the front of the list rather than the back. However, the standard library stack
adaptor cannot support this.
It would be relatively easy to write a partial specialization for stack
to support forward_list
, but that opens the question of which header to place it in. A much better solution would be to add a concept_map
for the StackLikeContainer
concept to the <forward_list>
header and then everything just works, including a user's own further uses in a stack-like context.
Therefore while I am submitting the issue now so that it is on record, I strongly recommend we resolve as "NAD Concepts" as any non-concepts based solution will be inferior to the final goal, and the feature is not so compelling it must be supported ahead of the concepts-based library.

Moved to Tentatively NAD Concepts after 5 positive votes on c++std-lib.
Rationale:
Any non-concepts based solution will be inferior to the final goal, and the feature is not so compelling it must be supported ahead of the concepts-based library.
