I was anxious to get beta 1 out the door primarily so we can start the 
process of testing and refinement sooner, not so much to hasten the 
final release.  I'm happy to keep MySQL++ in beta (or gamma, or RC...) 
status as long as changes of this sort keep coming in.

Indeed!  I actually mentioned wanting to do this in the initial 
announcement of RefCountedPointer, and had it on the wishlist for a 
while, but ran into some block and dropped it.  I'm very happy you've 
found a way around whatever it was I ran into. :)

Applied mostly as-is, with the standard sort of minor tweaks.
