Alexander, I propose this patch. It support optional returns for RefPtr-based types. However you would have to manually clear RefPtr in order to not return a value.

You might expect that the proper way would be to pass empty RefPtr in the first place, but unfortunately this is much harder to implement right now and it would interfere with a refactoring that I'm doing on the same part of generator code.

Please consider using this schema as a temporary solution. You can put FIXME comment at each RefPtr clearing site. I'm going to iterate over all returns in the future when landing my refactoring.
