Just to be clear, the proposal there was to take an already existing function object and call some UA-provided method that under the hood changes its [[Construct]] internal symbol. Which is a non-starter for us in the short term simply because Gecko currently has no concept of different [[Construct]] for different _function_ objects (as opposed to other objects). -Boris
