Details

A macro exists to enumerate an nsTObserverArray<nsIFoo*> but that array doesn't own references to its elements, and the macro doesn't work for nsCOMPtr types.
What happens if you try to use the generic enumerator when the array is an array of nsCOMPtrs?
it won't compile, the macro is designed for arrays of raw interface pointers only. we could add a macro for the case where T is a strong pointer, or otherwise doesn't need COMPtr-ifying... or you could just write the loop out, it's only three lines, no?
It now looks as if we won't be able to use a generic macro after all.
