But unless you released the container class then the objects *are* still
being used by the container. If you *have* released the container then you
cant enumerate it! This seem like a nonsense argument to me.

If you just want to run through the objecst in the container and use each one
once, releasing it when done, then you are effectively taking them out of
the container. If you actually do this then they will be released when you
expect - i.e. each time round the loop.
