Rather than "fixing" the spec, I suggest that we attempt to close on
the issue.  It took me ages to find the thread, because it's been so
long since we talked about this.  I guess the thread just got lost and
forgotten.

Here's the proposal that came out of an interim some time back:

I suspect that requiring the monkey patch might be a bit strong for
some, but the constructors do seem to provide value.
