Maybe I'm misunderstanding your requirements; but I don't see why it can't 
work.  To avoid long discussions; can you look at this 
mock-implementation I just quickly did ?
It uses refcounted d-pointers and seems to do what you require.
See the main() for what I mean;
    FileTimeZone ftz;
    TimeZone tz = ftz;
    FileTimeZone ftz2 = tz;
This compiles; and altering a setter on any of the 3 will immediately 
alter it on the other two as well.

Cheers!
