I was thinking about just calling a method notifying the object it went out of
the scope it was declared in. The user could then keep track of ref counting
themselves and choose how to handle the case. Personally I want to enable this
manually on some objects that I know I didn’t outside of the scope and that
would be a handy way to manage this.
