The point you have to keep in mind is that it can be extended: There are no 
virtual methods on it, and no reason to add any, and it doesn't have a virtual 
destructor, so it is not designed to be subclassed (actually it should be a 
namespace instead of a class).

So whether the API doesn't offer enough for you is beside the point - the 
point (and the problem) is that it appears in public headers.

Thanks,
