Where is this magic documented? The documentation for CFRetain doesn't mention this usage.

Using CFRetain on an object doesn't quite "disable collection" for the object, but rather bumps its retain count (Yes, RC in GC!). A retain count > 0 will prevent collection - even if there are no other references to this object that would otherwise keep it alive.
