Comment (by olly):

 `Weight` isn't relevant here - the weight object passed to
 `Enquire::set_weighting_scheme()` doesn't need to live on after the call
 (internally that object is cloned, so and the clone used further).

 So updated list of classes still to deal with:

   * `ErrorHandler` (? might just get removed/replaced)
   * `ExpandDecider` (? lingering references exist via `ExpandDeciderAnd`)
   * `LatLongMetric` (? is this class just too much generality?)
   * `KeyMaker`
   * `PostingSource` (? has clone(), but bindings need to handle specially)
