It occurs to me that your plan is probably: with an explicit cast when the lock is acquired. So in practice 'unshared' is really going to mean something more like 'exclusively owned' and these modifiers aren't really going to help with managing what data is actually thread local vs. in the global heap. The purpose of the 'shared' annotation is then just to warn you about unlocked data and to serve a similar purpose as 'volatile' for code generation. Is this about right?
