For using garbage collection with handles, also check TclJava. It does
exactly that and only releases the object for it to be collected by Java
when no more references are found to the handle (a string). Apparently
this works, to some extent. Here's a brief description and an explanation
of one of the problems that Feather would actually have solved:
