gollark: A node is only going to need to be the root of a document tree somewhere (needs freeing once all operations on it are done), part of a tree owned somewhere else (will be freed when the root is), or something which is going to be appended to a tree soon™.
gollark: Can I just `GC_unref` it when adding it to a tree, or something like that? Does that work for `--gc:orc`?
gollark: I don't think so?
gollark: I don't see why it would, it's a markdown parser.
gollark: One issue is that it needs to *not* free a node if it's just been attached to a tree, but the GC presumably doesn't know about that.
