 * Purpose: Container class for storing objects in an IdentityMap.
 * The weak cache key uses a weak reference to allow garbage collection of its object.
 * The cache key itself however will remain and thus should cleaned up every now and then.
 * 
Responsibilities:

 *  Hold key and object.
 * 
 Maintain and update the current writeLockValue.
