Description
boost::sub_match is conceptually already a Range. It already provides the correct typedefs and only misses the begin() and end() iterator retrieval functions.
Alternatively implementing the range_begin(sub_match&) and range_end(sub_match&) functions would achieve the same: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_57_0/libs/range/doc/html/range/reference/extending/method_2.html. That however would not permit direct usage with C++11's foreach, member methods begin() and end() would.

A patch is available in pull request 11 on boostorg/regex (not putting a link here because it complains about spam and asks me to fill out a captcha which it refuses to display).
