I'm slightly surprised to see the SectionTable being copied everywhere, as I'd expect there to only be one, but I guess it doesn't matter since it's just a wrapper around a reference to an array of pointers.

I think this might be wise. It will ensure that people realise that it doesn't own the underlying sections, and that copying it is safe.
