A colleague of mine who works on WebKit saw this thread in the Boost mailing
list archive and pointed me to this thread on the WebKit mailing list
archive:

https://lists.webkit.org/pipermail/webkit-dev/2016-March/028075.html

Phil: If you want to have a real world user of your idea (which will also
organically help you improve your design and implementation), an opportunity
has already presented itself.

You mentioned you wrote this with WebKit in mind because parts of it use GC.
If you replace their GC with a solution that uses your root/block pointer,
and show before/after benchmarks, it will lend credibility to you and your
idea.

Glen
