I just wanted to remind anyone following this that, if Kyle adopts #2 (embedding synchronization or refcounting in device memory containers), these waits/guards/guarantees/etc. wouldn't be of interest to the majority of users.  So, I think it's a lot of debate over what's essentially a corner case.  And event guarantees get the job done, while anything else is just easier to use (and misuse).

I hope you don't feel that's unfair, Thomas.
