Yes, it's an admirable idea but it just won't work for any arbitrary
pointer.

If he wants to validate pointers, then require the pointers to come from his
own library package, a la Aaron's suggestion - allocate your own control
structure in which to wrap a normal pointer.

(Don't mean to offend you, Robert, by mentioning you in third person.)
