Hang on ... is this a smart _pointer_ or a smart _reference_?

If a pointer, it makes no sense to use is to compare them as pointing to the
same object.  And even if it's a reference, what practical use is there in
being able to use is for this?  ISTM it would break more generic programming
cases than it would open up.
