+/// const string reference members are generally considered unsafe as they can
+/// be created from a temporary quite easily.
+///
+/// \code
+/// struct S {
+///  S(const string &Str) : Str(Str) {}
+///  const string &Str;
+/// };
+/// S instance("string");
+/// \endcode
+///
+/// In the constructor call a string temporary is created from const char * and
+/// destroyed immediately after the call. This leaves around a dangling
+/// reference.
+///
+/// This check emit warnings for both std::string and ::string const reference
+/// members.
+///
+/// Corresponding cpplint.py check name: 'runtime/member_string_reference'.
