I am surprised that it is so easy to bind any script language. For 
python, I use boost and I know also a bit of sip. In both of these 
frameworks, there are issues of reference counting and ownership of 
objects. How does kross deal with this ?

For example, if I create an object in a script and want it to be usable 
by the application, how does that work ? Can the application delete the 
object ? How about the other way round : the application creates a C++ 
object, which has script binding. Can I store a reference to that object 
in my script ? If the c++ application deletes the object, what happens ?
