Review Comment:
   It’s too bad the api is not like a managed resource, like a stream or jdbc 
connection. Then you could return a proxy that pins it when in use, unpins when 
released. The proxy doing the callbacks like a jdbc pool or txn manager keeps 
it hidden from the application logic from handling explicitly.
