How do you mean? Reference to is currently only available for cblocks on macOS
I think so I'm not sure how this would look.

So up to 4 types are needed: "is nested", "of object" and "reference to

FPC has a number of function pointer types and eventually will have another in
"reference to" closures. This presents a problem of how the programmer can make
a function that is type agnostic so that we can use different types of
callbacks.
Currently this is the best solution I can think of but
