@kngwyu That's great, yes I was also concerned about the conflict with that other PR. Incidentally, my use case is a memory buffer with a private key which I want to zero out as soon as there's no more references to it, but not before then. |

This PR doesn't cover the buffer refactoring mentioned in #657 for example, but it allows for implementors to avoid having the exporter dropped while Python is holding a memoryview referencing it. Leaving as a draft because I'm not sure what the impact would be on existing implementations.
