The thing is, variable argument lists are not terribly popular in "modern" C++. The trend is more for function call chaining. I have seen at least one wrapper besides one that I have written that copies the idea of overloaded shift operators for formatted input/output, but applied to a database wrapper instead of the I/O stream library. (Actually, considering that the prepared statement text is effectively a format string, it would be more like copying Boost.Format.)
