Just an update so that you know this hasn't been forgotten...  My 
current plan is to standardize everything on the canBeFreed() 
interface.  This essentially lets me back out the original patch you 
replied to.  I'm holding off on that until a couple of other patches 
have landed (mostly for clarity sake), but haven't forgotten this.
