For me, what I don't like is they are in the wrong place. If you use a
malloc/free custom allocator, that fact is hidden in the class.
There's no outward indication that you need to use care and delete it.
Also, if you have one class that you want to use in two separate ways,
the custom allocator doesn't do it.

Sometimes I want it manually, sometimes I want it automatic. The usage
site is where I want to make the decision, rarely in the class
definition.
