If I add it to a G1 file, it seems to me arbitrary which to use. If you find a nice place to put it, I will move it, otherwise I will keep it where it is. I will not create a new file for the function and would in that case prefer to inline expand the code.

> My concern with including `uint index(uint id) const` in the API of `RefProcProxyTask` is that its name/implementation is too generic. In the context of `RefProcProxyTask`, it's not obvious what `id` is, what `index` should return, and why `(_tm == RefProcThreadModel::Single) ? 0 : id;` is correct.

I inlined it.
