s/cleaning/freeing/ I understand, but if you have happen to have a dedicated list type, then you'd have a dedicated destructor, so both of these would be okay with vectors. On the other hand I'm not sure whether we have such a thing at the moment, so I guess it's meaningful to document in the meantime.
