Shouldn't this technically tie in with ResourceOwners? If a pointer takes the pin count from 1 to 2, then that pointer
shouldbe invalid by the time the pin count goes from 2 to 1...
I'm worried that a simple test when pin count is 0 could miss some cases of pointers just happening to be cleared by a
secondpart of the code even though the pin count has already dropped.
