Comment(by richard):

 I had just about come to the same conclusions as you, that subclassing is
 probably the way to go.

 One approach to getting the internal class out of the header is to make an
 "InternalPtr" class which wraps the reference counted pointer, and using a
 pointer to that instead.  This leads to an extra redirection, which is
 annoying, but I think the benefit of not having the implementation in the
 public header would be worth it (and it's not in a particularly
 performance critical place).

 I have an experimental patch which does this which I'll attach shortly.
