The larger discussion that we need to have is what we do about the API
problems, and the long-lived resources. There has been some discussion in
IRC, on various JIRAs, and sprinkled across email about the proper
solution, but I'm having a hard time mentally merging all of those
conversations, so I'll propose that we refocus on it here.
What are our invariants? What are the goals? What tools are available to
solve the problem?
What are some of the issues you see now, Mike?
I can think of the lifetime and thread-safe-ness of Instance and
Connector being rather undefined right now. Actually, the
thread-safe-ness of many objects created off of Connector is unclear
without reading the implementations.
I think we all agree that there are areas we could improve, but if we
don't lay out what the ones we want to try to make better, and how to do
so, we're not making any progress.
