+This handle class is deprecated. Unfortunately it is already in widespread use
+to reference the LLObjectSelection and LLParcelSelection classes, but do not
+apply LLSafeHandle to other classes, or declare new instances.
+
+Instead, use LLPointer or other smart pointer types with appropriate checks
+for NULL. If you're certain the reference cannot (or must not) be NULL,
+consider storing a C++ reference instead -- or use (e.g.) LLCheckedHandle.
+
+When an LLSafeHandle<T> containing NULL is dereferenced, it resolves to a
+canonical "null" T instance. This raises issues about the lifespan of the
+"null" instance. In addition to encouraging sloppy coding practices, it
+potentially masks bugs when code that performs some mutating operation
+inadvertently applies it to the "null" instance. That result might or might
+not ever affect subsequent computations.
