+// In capability theory, a "membrane" is a wrapper around a capability which (usually) forwards
+// calls but recursively wraps capabilities in those calls in the same membrane. The purpose of a
+// membrane is to enforce a barrier between two capabilities that cannot be bypassed by merely
+// introducing new objects.
+//
+// The most common use case for a membrane is revocation: Say Alice wants to give Bob a capability
+// to access Carol, but wants to be able to revoke this capability later. Alice can accomplish this
+// by wrapping Carol in a revokable wrapper which passes through calls until such a time as Alice
+// indicates it should be revoked, after which all calls through the wrapper will throw exceptions.
+// However, a naive wrapper approach has a problem: if Bob makes a call to Carol and sends a new
+// capability in that call, or if Carol returns a capability to Bob in the response to a call, then
+// the two are now able to communicate using this new capability, which Alice cannot revoke. In
+// order to avoid this problem, Alice must use not just a wrapper but a "membrane", which
+// recursively wraps all objects that pass through it in either direction. Thus, all connections
+// formed between Bob and Carol (originating from Alice's original introduction) can be revoked
+// together by revoking the membrane.
+//
+// Note that when a capability is passed into a membrane and then passed back out, the result is
+// the original capability, not a double-membraned capability. This means that in our revocation
+// example, if Bob uses his capability to Carol to obtain another capability from her, then send
+// it back to her, the capability Carol receives back will NOT be revoked when Bob's access to
+// Carol is revoked. Thus Bob can create long-term irrevocable connections. In most practical use
+// cases, this is what you want. APIs commonly rely on the fact that a capability obtained and then
+// passed back can be recognized as the original capability.

+  // "inside" the membrane), decides what to do with it. The policy may:
+  //
+  // - Return null to indicate that the call should proceed to the destination. All capabilities
+  //   in the parameters or result will be properly wrapped in the same membrane.
+  // - Return a capability to have the call redirected to that capability. Note that the redirect
+  //   capability will be treated as outside the membrane, so the params and results will not be
+  //   auto-wrapped; however, the callee can easily wrap the returned capability in the membrane
+  //   itself before returning to achieve this effect.
+  // - Throw an exception to cause the call to fail with that exception.
+  //
+  // `target` is the underlying capability (*inside* the membrane) for which the call is destined.
+  // Generally, the only way you should use `target` is to wrap it in some capability which you
+  // return as a redirect. The redirect capability may modify the call in some way and send it to
+  // `target`. Be careful to use `copyIntoMembrane()` and `copyOutOfMembrane()` as appropriate when
+  // copying parameters or results across the membrane.
+  //
+  // Note that since `target` is inside the capability, if you were to directly return it (rather
+  // than return null), the effect would be that the membrane would be broken: the call would
+  // proceed directly and any new capabilities introduced through it would not be membraned. You

+  // Note: It is strongly recommended that `outboundCall()` returns null in exactly the same cases
+  //   that `inboundCall()` return null. Conversely, for any case where `inboundCall()` would
+  //   redirect or throw, `outboundCall()` should also redirect or throw. Otherwise, you can run
+  //   into inconsistent behavion when a promise is returned across a membrane, and that promise
+  //   later resolves to a capability on the other side of the membrane: calls on the promise

+  // Note that the membraning system considers two membranes created with the same MembranePolicy
+  // object actually to be the *same* membrane. This is relevant when an object passes into the
