Sorry if my reply seemed defensive. I certainly didn't intend that. I just thought it would be worth stating for the record how that feature came about.

Just in case someone is using it, lets change configure.ac to print a
warning message that says they should configure with the address-sanitizer
option instead for detecting out-of-bound memory accesses.

I'd also say that we should just standardize on using operator () instead
of the elem method as well.

Without xelem, that is now possible and makes sense to me.

Do you want to work on these changes or should I?

Why don't you go ahead if you have the time.  I will continue, slowly, to
try and rationalize some of the #includes.

OK.
