Hi Joe,
Sounds exciting!
What does this look like from userland? I'm guessing you wrap the object you want a weak
reference to in a special container? If so, has there been any previous discussion of baking it
further into the language, e.g. as a keyword to wrap, and an implicit unwrap? Obviously something
that could be revisited later, just curious if it's been considered.
Cheers,
