	/// DOMObject defines the rules for memory management
	/// in this implementation of the DOM. Violation of these
	/// rules, which are outlined in the following, results
	/// in memory leaks or dangling pointers.
	///
	/// Every object created by new or by a factory
	/// method (for example, Document::create*) must be released
	/// with a call to release() or autoRelease() when it
	/// is no longer needed.
	///
	/// Every object created by cloning or importing another
	/// object must be released.
	/// For every call to duplicate() there must be a matching
	/// call to release().
	/// An object obtained via any other way must not be
	/// released, except ownership of it has been explicitly
	/// taken with a call to duplicate().
	///
	/// While DOMObjects are safe for use in multithreaded programs,
	/// a DOMObject or one of its subclasses must not be accessed
	/// from multiple threads simultaneously.
