Hi Jö,
The reason

my statement was referring to the protocol on the topic "EntityPointer's
future". The statement was:
In order to have operator-> work, a helper object should be provided by
the facade infrastructure.
Sounds fishy to me. And fishy most likely is not what we want.
Especially, since operator-> is not really needed.
If the documentation is the problem, we can make it clear that
EntityIterators behave like forward_iterators except for the missing
postfix and operator->. At least that makes it clear without the
mickeymousing suggested in the protocol (see above).
Best,
Rob
