We are missing an overload for RefPtrs, that means that trying to use it with RefPtrs does not release on the requested thread, but on the current one.

My patch in bug 599973 hit this when trying to release an instance of nsFaviconService on the main-thread.
oh and actually that means we crash on dereference when the release happens in the async runnable since it has already been release.

I'm not sure if NS_HIDDEN_ is really still needed nowadays, but I mostly did a 1:1 copy of the COMPtr overload

Need this to fix a blocker (I suppose we could work around this be implementing it ourselves, but that's just silly).

I just talked with shaver.  He says r=shaver but we need to template it if we get a third one.
