I am not a lawyer either, but I believe that this would not clash with the BSL. If the Zlib license *required* that you put an acknowledgement in the documentation etc, that would clash. But the way it is worded, I think it's compatible. To answer the original question, I think this is a nice idea and I would probably use it.

Beast currently has its own port of ZLib to C++:
https://github.com/boostorg/beast/tree/develop/include/boost/beast/zlib
I see it's a derivative work of zlib, rather than a from scratch implementation. IANAL, but isn't there a license issue there? (zlib license has non-mandatory aknowledgements requests which i'm not sure are boost-compatible).
