In conjunction with [[GetFirstRef]], this function might be used for a way to walk through individual items in an inventory. Drop the item, then use [[GetFirstRef]] to get the dropped item/stack's reference. Make sure to pick up the items with an [[Activate]] after manipulating the items, to keep the item's script from running. If I'm not mistaken, this is effectively how [[:Category:RefStuff|RefStuff]] works, but doesn't require the plug-in. This still has the same limitations as '''RefStuff''', mainly that not every function has been modified to work on references (i.e., [[SetEquippedWeaponPoison]]).--[[User:Haama|Haama]] 13:24, 2 June 2008 (EDT)

:According to the article, it would appear that the answers are "yes" and "never?" - the latter seems uncertain, however. But I'm basing this entirely on the article that you claim does not answer those questions, a statement which confuses me since I see both issues addressed in the Note section...
