On a related note, I think it's unfortunate that dds_get_outer()
creates a wrapper surface with refcount 1 if it doesn't exist yet, but
doesn't AddRef() existing interfaces when returning them. That means
the caller effectively needs to know if the wrapper already exists or
not in order to do proper refcounting.
