I am interested in this. I am currently using new/destroy. If
you know of a way to use templates for this (aside from
RefCounted and Scoped) please elaborate. It would be quite
helpful for me.

I am implementing a custom runtime and am very interested in this
as well. This was the heart of my previous post. I see that the
runtime hooks can be used to implement an alternate GC, but do
you think these hooks could be used to implement a reference
counted, owned pointer, etc... implementation as an alternative
to a GC? Are there any currently missing runtime hooks preventing
such an implementation?
