Indeed, I agree with most of the points Chris is making, in particular I find
extremely important the point about stable_partition. I only want to add that
in principle in this specific case, dispatching to an overload using only swaps
(like the one for bidirectional iter) for any type != scalar for example would
be of course trivial. For sure there would be border cases in which we would
regress performance-wise. Do we have any idea what other implementations are
doing here? In particular stlport for example, which also inherited the
original HP/SGI three overloads.
