I'm not totally sure I understand this point. What do you mean by 
"memory management"? (Binary compatibility of stdlib is not an issue, 
and implementation consistency for containers shouldn't really be either).

It's just a problem of "who does the work", and we've got a terrible 
track record at that.  But I grant that implementing containers is fun, 
and I'm not doing the work, so I shut up :)
