Hi Martin

This looks like a good idea, though I wonder if the tags shouldnt be 
something less widely used than 0xdeadbeef and 0xbadcafe0?

eg you could encode ascii '0' 'M' 'Q' + 1 other char into the 32bit int, 
something more on 64 bit.

and with care around endianess it would read ok in the debugger say for 
example, if you ever crashed you were scanning an area of memory looking 
for clues....

Essentially I'm saying can the 'signature' on the objects be a bit more 
unique.....
