IMHO the network memory allocator is being a little too focused on one problem,
rather than looking at a general enhancement.

Have you looked into something like the talloc used by Samba (and others)?
http://talloc.samba.org/
http://samba.org/ftp/unpacked/samba4/source/lib/talloc/talloc_guide.txt

By having a context, we could do better resource tracking and also cleanup
would be easier on removal.
