Does seem a bit like a nightmare...

It may facilitate a transition to add a destructor member 
function as well (C# has dispose as an interface, maybe that's 
better?). Then have a deprecation for ~this and tell people to 
use finalize or destructor, and then add back ~this with the 
property that the default ~this calls destructor if that's there.
