i really would prefer not to use a strange name since it might confuse
larger group of people who are more familiar with the traditional meaning
of this function. vcc_release() isnt exported so we could rename it if
things get too confusing.

i have to look at this a bit more but we might be able to use release_cb
to get rid of the null push to detach the underlying protocol. that would
be somewhat nice.
