Re: [std-proposals] Add Projection Support for std::ranges::views

Thanks all for your answers. I obviously misread the description in
https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/ranges/filter_view (in other places the
overload for a projection is explicitly shown). Yes, this helps a lot and
solves one problem. However the original issue I was trying to fix recently
was this: https://godbolt.org/z/TW8P5xqxz. I use range-v3 as a polyfill for
the missing std::views::chunk_by, maybe this is the problem.
