This is a \c level -fold nested instance of \c Flattening_const_iterator, where \c level can be any non-negative integer. At each nesting level, begin and end functors are supplied to \c Flattening_const_iterator which assume that their arguments have a \c const_iterator typedef and \c begin() and \c end() member functions in the style of the STL. The functor Flatten()(it) converts an \c InputIterator \c it to a \c Recursive_flattening_iterator. Converting each endpoint of an iterator range [first,beyond) yields an iterator range in which \c level levels of packing into containers have been unpacked. (In particular, the case \c level==0 is permissible and a no-op.) To get a \c const_iterator out of a container \c c of type \c C which is not \c const itself, one can use syntax like const_cast(c).begin()).
