I think it is impossible to implement Coordinator without having a strong
reference to all active Coordination’s, how could pop() otherwise return the
current coordination? And the reflection API has the same implications. So the
answer is clearly yes.
That said, this way you loose an extra safety check that nobody screwed up
downstream …
