-------------------------------------

In a multi-threaded environment, one wants to open a new reader, but needs to 
wait until all requests finish before closing the old reader.  Seems like 
reference counting is the only way to handle that case.

> This is Robert Engels' implementation of IndexReader.reopen() functionality, 
> as a set of 3 new classes (this was easier for him to implement, but should 
> probably be folded into the core, if this looks good).
