Some matrix proxies (row and matrix_vector_range) use find2 to obtain 
iterators pointing to begin and end of the data. To be more precise: nearly 
all (const_)iterators use find to compute pointers to the data.

I don't think find2 should be part of the matrix concept, because it is only 
used internally. But if you create your own matrix class - you have to 
provide this helper function.
