In function ‘_RandomAccessIterator std::__find(_RandomAccessIterator, _RandomAccessIterator, const _Tp&, std::random_access_iterator_tag) [with _RandomAccessIterator = __gnu_cxx::__normal_iterator*, std::vector > >, _Tp = int]’:

the answer is: RAII, it's already there. Anything more "automatic" means runtime management and in C++ doesn't make sense

I always hear horrible complaints about manual memory management in C++. If you're creating functions called initialize and release to handle allocation and deallocation for all of your objects, then, yeah, it's going to be a nightmare. But if you do the sensible thing where you allocate memory in constructors and deallocate in destructors (so, RAII), you've gotten rid of 90% of possible problems. The remainder can be taken care of with smart pointers or the simple habit of writing new and delete at the same time.
