Don't print trailing delimiter stream_iterator C++

Question

What is the most elegant way, in your opinion, to print to std::cout using std::ostream_iterator in C++11 and avoid printing a trailing delimeter?

The object I'm printing has bidirectional iterators, but not random access iterators.

std::list<double> x{1,2,3,4,5,6};
std::copy(x.begin(), std::prev(x.end()),
                std::ostream_iterator<int>(std::cout, ",") );
if ( x.size() != 0 )
  std::cout << *(--x.end()) << std::endl;

Here's one of my favorites, but it doesn't use std::ostream_iterator:

#include <iterator>
#include <string>
#include <iosfwd>

template <class C>
auto
print(std::ostream& os, const C& c,
      const std::string& delim = std::string(", "),
      const std::string& open_brace = std::string("{"),
      const std::string& close_brace = std::string("}")
     ) -> decltype(std::begin(c), std::end(c), os)
{
    os << open_brace;
    auto i = std::begin(c);
    auto e = std::end(c);
    if (i != e)
    {
        os << *i;
        for (++i; i != e; ++i)
            os << delim << *i;
    }
    os << close_brace;
    return os;
}

#include <list>
#include <iostream>

int main()
{
    std::list<double> x{1,2,3,4,5,6};
    print(std::cout, x) << '\n';
}

{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}

Update

Oliver goaded me into a challenge I couldn't resist. :-)

#include <iterator>
#include <string>
#include <iosfwd>

namespace my {

template <class C>
auto
print(std::ostream& os, const C& c,
      const std::string& delim = std::string(", "),
      const std::string& open_brace = std::string("{"),
      const std::string& close_brace = std::string("}")
     ) -> decltype(std::begin(c), std::end(c), os);

template <class C,
           typename std::enable_if
                    <
                       !std::is_same<C, std::string>::value,
                    bool>::type = false
         >
inline
auto
operator<< (std::ostream& os, const C& c) -> decltype(print(os, c))
{
    return print(os, c);
}

template <class C>
auto
print(std::ostream& os, const C& c,
      const std::string& delim,
      const std::string& open_brace,
      const std::string& close_brace
     ) -> decltype(std::begin(c), std::end(c), os)
{
    os << open_brace;
    auto i = std::begin(c);
    auto e = std::end(c);
    if (i != e)
    {
        os << *i;
        for (++i; i != e; ++i)
            os << delim << *i;
    }
    os << close_brace;
    return os;
}

}

#include <list>
#include <forward_list>
#include <iostream>

int main()
{
    std::forward_list<std::list<double>> x{{}, {3, 2, 1}, {1,2,3,4,5,6}};
    my::print(std::cout, x) << '\n';
}

{{}, {3, 2, 1}, {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}}

It isn't perfect, but it was fun. :-) There's probably a better way to do it that would propagate the custom delimiter and braces more faithfully.
