//  public:
//   // Optional, only required if non-empty template should be used.

// Subclasses should also typically have private constructors and expose a
// static Create function that returns a mate::Handle. Forcing creators through
// this static Create function will enforce that clients actually create a
// wrapper for the object. If clients fail to create a wrapper for a wrappable
// object, the object will leak because we use the weak callback from the
// wrapper as the signal to delete the wrapped object.
