I'm not too interested in this anymore (I _was_ a year ago, IIRC).
I have given up using the buffer object myself, I've written
my own (maybe in the same way as others).

Hm. The name could be right (and I cold give up my own memory
object) if there were a way to create a buffer owning it's
own memory.

Or this.
