+/**
+ * A simple pointer that locks and holds a mutex until destroyed
+ *
+ * Care must be taken when using this. It's not very sophisticated and does
+ * not handle being copied except for the simple return use case. When it is
+ * copied it hands off the mutex to the copy and clears it in the original,
+ * meaning that the mutex is unlocked when the last LockingPtr<> in a chain
+ * of such handoffs is destroyed. If this chain of handoffs "forks" (more than
+ * one copy is made) then non-determinism may ensue.
+ *
+ * This does not delete or do anything else with the pointer. It also does not
+ * take care of locking the lock. That must be done beforehand.
