Well, smart pointers and (sort of) templates and lambdas are in Rust. I definitely want smart pointers.

  Not when you need your own allocator. Anything that tries to manage memory w/o you knowing about it will be working against you.

    Smart pointers are not really about managing memory, they're about managing lifetimes. Even things like the Rust RefCell are smart pointers.

      Rust lifetimes is a mechanism to manage memory.
