The problem with shared_ptr::unique() is weak_ptr: weak_ptr::lock() can 
materialize new strong references at any time, cf. wg21.link/P1116 for a 
possible solution (which, however, isn't implementable in an 
ABI-compatible fashion on most platforms).

QISP doesn't have an associated weak_ptr.

Thanks,
Marc
