+ * refcount objclass
+ *
+ * The refcount objclass implements a refcounting scheme that allows having multiple references
+ * to a single rados object. The canonical way to use it is to add a reference and to remove a
+ * reference using a specific tag. This way we ensure that refcounting operations are idempotent,
+ * that is, a single client can only increase/decrease the refcount once using a single tag, so
+ * any replay of operations (implicit or explicit) is possible.
+ *
+ * So, the regular usage would be to create an object, to increase the refcount. Then, when
+ * wanting to have another reference to it, increase the refcount using a different tag. When
+ * removing a reference it is required to drop the refcount (using the same tag that was used
+ * for that reference). When the refcount drops to zero, the object is removed automaticfally.
+ *
+ * In order to maintain backwards compatibility with objects that were created without having
+ * their refcount increased, the implicit_ref was added. Any object that was created without
+ * having it's refcount increased (explicitly) is having an implicit refcount of 1. Since
+ * we don't have a tag for this refcount, we consider this tag as a wildcard. So if the refcount
+ * is being decreased by an unknown tag and we still have one wildcard tag, we'll accept it
+ * as the relevant tag, and the refcount will be decreased.
