---> is correct as you wrote it. However, I wouldn't
advise doing this particular specialisation!

It isn't necessary, your "Ref<T>" class(es) should do
all the work. You could consider a container adaptor
instead.

BTW: you CAN'T specialise standard library templates;
if you do you release your compiler from any obligation
to operate correctly.
