Neil,

you may want to have a look at mxProxy. This is a proxy implementation
which already provides weak references (among other things) and has
the advantages you talked about in your reply.

Hmm, I think this can be done more cleanly with a proxy now the
the coercion stuff has been cleaned up.  I will probably give it a go
tonight.  The advantage of using a proxy is that you can have a weak
reference to any object and you only pay memory for weak references
if you use them.

Assigned to Martin, since he's indicated he intends to go over this very
carefully!
