Hello Peter,

Your suggestions make sense to me, except one. The MIDIObjectRef values

The "Handle" is merely that, a token that represents the unmanaged object.
There is no magic associated with the IntPtr, other than the fact that an
IntPtr can fit both an "int" and the native platform "void *", which happens
to be two common ways of representing tokens in C APIs.
