/** nsIMdbObject: base class for all message db class interfaces
**
** factory: all nsIMdbObjects from the same code suite have the same factory
**
** refcounting: both strong and weak references, to ensure strong refs are
** acyclic, while weak refs can cause cycles. CloseMdbObject() is
** called when (strong) use counts hit zero, but clients can call this close
** method early for some reason, if absolutely necessary even though it will
** thwart the other uses of the same object. Note that implementations must
** cope with close methods being called arbitrary numbers of times. The COM
** calls to AddRef() and release ref map directly to strong use ref calls,
** but the total ref count for COM objects is the sum of weak & strong refs.
