This is primarily for access to comments, which would be expected to be available in a protoc plugin. The implementation has two fiddly aspects: - We use a Lazy<T> to avoid building the map before cross-linking. An alternative would be to crosslink at the end of the constructor, and remove the calls to CrossLink elsewhere. This would be generally better IMO, but deviate from the Java code. - The casts to IReadOnlyList<DescriptorBase> are unfortunate. They'll always work, because these lists are always ReadOnlyCollection<T> for a descriptor type... but we can't use IList<DescriptorBase> as that's not covariant, and it's annoyingly fiddly to change the field to be of type ReadOnlyCollection<T>.
