It turned into the Dataflow library, and yes - the filter chaining
should be within its scope.  At the moment you can do it using the
layer based on Boost.Signals - see the "motivation and advantages"
section for a simple filter example (there are other examples of
filter chains as well):

The Boost.Signals approach might not be the best for the use case you
mention here - but I am planning to expand the library with another
(perhaps more suitable) dataflow layer, and any feedback on what is
useful or lacking in what's currently supported by the library would
be greatly appreciated!
