But reallocating on erase still falls under the problem that it
invalidates everything, including the part before the erased range.

Indeed. This is why I mentioned it in the first place. This can be "disabled" 
by calling reserve().
Anyhow, I am not against any of the options: have shrinking optimization or not 
in erase(). It would just be good to know why it was needed (or thought of) 
initially.
