If you use references or pointers only, it is surely allowed by the language. However, I strongly believe that any kind of "owner" backreference in the object is really bad design. The owner parameter should be passed as argument to every function that needs it. And if that hurts, it justly does so. An inset should be as agnostic as possible with regard to the place where it lives. And yes, I know that the LyX core is full of it.
