Research direction
Start by inspecting the boost::reference_wrapper implementation and its existing tests, then compare the requested operator-> behavior for reference_wrapper<Object*> and reference_wrapper<std::shared_ptr>. Determine the intended semantics and compatibility requirements; done means the design is agreed and covered by tests.

Description
Why boost::reference_wrapper template class dosn't has operator-> overloading? Is there any objective reason?
It may be useful for some instantiations, like boost::reference_wrapper<Object*> or like boost::reference_wrapper<std::shared_ptr<Object>> to use these without casting
