I think it may be useful to have fmt overloads such as
template <typename S, typename F, typename A> S& fastformat::fmt (S &sink, F const & format, size_t numElems, A const * elems );

The format parameters {0},{1}...{i} would be replaced by elements 0,1..i of the array. Probably, trying to access non-existing elements should result in an exception, but I am really flexible on that.
Does it seem useful? Is it feasible?
I offer myself to help on debugging, testing, or whichever task may seem fit.
Thank's!

    Rough code which would support this usage as well as a generalized iterator usage fmt_iter( target, fmt, begin, end ) is attached to this forum post -- http://sourceforge.net/projects/fastformat/forums/forum/612782/topic/3799803?message=8557998

    This code worked as of 0.4. Can it be considered for 1.0?
