Is there some way to use AllocRemember and then at some later time free only
part of the allocated memory? FreeRemember appears to release all memory
associated with a key. It seems like it would be fairly trivial for a function
to spin down the linked list of Remember structures to find the particular
block of memory to free, unlink and free the memory, and leave the rest of the
list intact. I have many applications that could use the AllocRemember function
if this functionality was provided by the library.

I don't mind writing this routine, but if the library already provides this
facility, I'll use it. If not, what's the chance of seeing something like this
added to the library?
