+// A template to wrap a type with a mutex so that accesses to the type's
+// data are required to take the lock before accessing it. This ensures
+// that a mutex is explicitly associated with the data that it protects,
+// and makes it impossible to access the data without first taking the
+// associated mutex.
+//
+// This is based on Rust's std::sync::Mutex, which operates under the
+// strategy of locking data, rather than code.
+//
+// Examples:
+//
+// DataMutex<uint32_t> u32DataMutex(1, "u32DataMutex");
+// auto x = u32DataMutex.Lock();
+// *x = 4;
+// assert(*x, 4u);
+//
+// DataMutex<nsTArray<uint32_t>> arrayDataMutex("arrayDataMutex");
+// auto a = arrayDataMutex.Lock();
+// auto& x = a.ref();
+// x.AppendElement(1u);
+// assert(x[0], 1u);
+//
