I see a number of examples like this

   Ref<Element> protect(*element);

    bool successfullyFocused = newDocument->setFocusedElement(element, direction);

It seems however, if we do 
RenderObject protect(m_renderer)
and then access protect, as an object that would solve our problem. Our problem is now that the pointer inside m_renderer is bad, but rather what m_renderer points to. If we copy what m_renderer pointed to and use that for the duration of the method, it seems like that would work
