    // (like UString) that get ref/deref'ed a lot. This class has the benefit of doing fast ref
    // counts like RefPtr whenever possible, but it has the downside that you need to copy it
    // to use it on another thread.
    //
    // Is this class threadsafe?
    // While each instance of the class is not threadsafe, the copied instance is threadsafe
    // with respect to the original and any other copies.  The underlying m_data is jointly
    // owned by the original instance and all copies.
