I am not sure what part of it you think I like.... I am ambivalent
about the 'virtual', but leans towards this being mentioned in a
comment instead. (I think doxygen does that automatically? That would
also solve your "lookup-base-func" problem.)

As to the 'const': Yes I like that. Couple of reasons: a. makes it
impossible to do strange/unsafe things with the temporary returned. b.
makes it more similar to a return type "string const &", and in
combination with a. makes a transition to this type later (if wanted)
easier.
