Comment(by hakre):

 Replying to [comment:8 Denis-de-Bernardy]:
 > I'd have one tiny objection to the current patch: a __destruct()
 function that calls destroy() should be kept around.

 Since destroy() has to be called by user code whenever the object is to be
 unset, this should not be necessary - taken for granted that pattern is to
 be used here.
