this might be a good idea anyhow, as such an object could check whether 
the context is setup correctly and whether the state is valid.
[any] should be prone to crashes if used incorrectly.

i don't like the name "gempointer" though, as it is inspired by the 
underlying implementation rather than the concept.

probably [gemcache] or [gemstate] are better names...
