Where would be a good place to document this issue so that this potential different behavior is more explicitly discussed? I'm contemplating a new IL factory which would transport all Principals except those enumerated by a constraint, and it sounds like I might be able to get what I need by using a slightly different implementation which might fit into the existing code and be driven by an additional constraint.
