Description

In the FAQ: "By the way, it's a great opportunity to make your operator>> conform to the standard"

IMO it's wrong and a little insulting to suggest that such an operator>> doesn't *conform*. It simply doesn't work they way they want in the presence of a particular flag. That's very different
