Before I dive into this too far, has anyone thought of/implemented using 
a metatable directly access a C++ STL container as a lua table?

Correct me if I'm wrong but container_policy.hpp just copies the values 
of the existing table into a lua table and returns that.  Couldn't we 
apply a meta table with "__index" "__newindex" and "__len" methods 
specialized to the container type.
