Sorry, I'm travelling and probably won't be able to respond promptly, but my first thought here is that this doesn't seem as well motivated as `usedAsMutableReference`, since taking a pointer to an object involves using explicit syntax (`&obj`) that taking a reference does not. My mental model of `usedAsMutableReference` is that it's a workaround for the fact that C++ does not have explicit syntax for forming a mutable reference (compare Rust's `ref obj` which in my mind makes this modifier likewise unnecessary there).
