        /** This helper template wraps VCL objects, and protects
            object deletion with the Solar mutex. All other operations
            are unprotected, this must be handled by client code.

            The reason for this template is the fact that VCL objects
            hold by value in uno::Reference-handled classes are
            deleted without having the chance to get inbetween and
            lock the solar mutex.

            This template handles that problem transparently, the only
            inconvenience is the fact that object member access now
            has to be performed via operator->, since . is not
            overloadable.

            Otherwise, the template preserves the value semantics of
            the wrapped object, that is, copy operations are performed
            not by copying pointers, but by copying the underlying
            object. This includes constness, i.e. on a const
            VCLObject, only const methods of the wrapped object can be
            called. Simply imagine this to be a value object of type
            "template argument", with the only peculiarity that
            member/method access is performed by operator-> instead of
            the non-existing "operator.".
