I'm not entirely sure that every use of the constructor needs
encapsulation. The constructor is also used to ensure the identity of a
program, and this doesn't need encapsulation (giving away write access
to the process storage suffices, even write notification to the
constructor, but this could be less secure or need some overhead).

Doubtfully,
