I think we should keep COM, but get rid of the D3D-Specific Addrefs because
they are different between the various versions d3d versions. So keep the
AddRef in IUnknown methods(QueryInterface namely), and GetParent, but do not
AddRef in d3d methods(SetTexture / GetTexture, ...)
Opinions?
From my point of view (solving d3dx implicit surface refcounts) the
GetParent AddRef is ugly. It spreads d3dx refcounting across d3dx and
wined3d. It would be easier to only do d3dx refcounting in d3dx.
But that's only my pragmatic view, without further COM knowledge.
