That will work for stack trace tracking.  For lastUsed, the problem
is that setLastUsed has to be available to the pool client (who
needs to be able to call it while an instance is checked out).  This
is why AbandonedTrace exists (well, half of the reason).  What I
said above is a little garbled.  I was thinking about
PoolableConnections, but referring to "PoolableObjects" which don't
actually exist in [pool].   So it seems we have two choices here
(there may well be others, but two jump out at me):

0) Depart from the no-need-to-unwrap tradition in [pool] and hand
out PooledObject<T> instead of <T> for abandoned object pools
1) Require that object factories used when abandoned object tracking
is enabled produce objects implementing an interface including
setLastUsed (or inherit from an abstract parent like AbandonedTrace)

I don't like 0) for several reasons and 1) does not look that bad to
me.  Any better ideas?
