Holding a shared pointer isn't really about making sure the client that 
provides the Listener is doing the right thing with it.  Rather, the 
shared-pointer-ness coupled with the fact that you have to provide a Listener 
to make a Process mean that the Process event code never has to reason about 
what to do if it didn't have a Listener, which would be a pointless 
complication.

I didn't try hard to come up with a way to enforce correct behavior on the 
client side because the fact that the debug session produced thereby wouldn't 
work seems a sufficient enforcement mechanism.
