OK, I’ll do that.  I didn’t place the getter on instanceKlass because
the question only makes sense for inline types, not identity types.

Maybe I should make the setter and getter protected on instanceKlass,
and promote the getter to public in valueKlass?  Or is it fine to make
everything public on instanceKlass?
