I know that the ArcGIS COM API has at least one example where a property has both propput and propputref, but to the best of my knowledge its for functionality that I've never needed to use. I'll see if I can dredge up the specifics. My off-the-cuff thought: generate a helper that calls the propputref if the value is a COM pointer, and the propput otherwise. I suspect that a fair bit of code that might otherwise need this uses a VARIANT parameter instead and thus avoids the apparent duplication.
