+/// A generic base class for objects that wish to have their lifetimes managed
+/// using reference counts. Classes subclass \c ThreadSafeRefCountedBase to
+/// obtain such functionality, and are typically handled with
+/// \c IntrusiveRefCntPtr "smart pointers" which automatically handle the
+/// management of reference counts.
