[[myObj retain] autorelease]

Sorry to ask a question about a topic that appears so frequently, but here I go: I haven't been able to find anything that explains when to use

   return [[myObj retain] autorelease];

instead of just

   return [myObj autorelease];

For example, Apple's default accessor methods do this. Is the reasoning something to do with thread-safeness perhaps?
