I guess when dealing with Obj-C objects, NSZombieEnabled=YES together with NSDeallocateZombies=NO does #2 and sorta does #3.
But, as I said, I was wondering if there is a way to extend this to all allocations (ie non-objects). Additionally, NSZombieEnabled does nothing under GC, and I'd be interesting in knowing if there is something similar for that case.
