Definitely!  I'm certainly all in favor of having something very akin to entry
points, but I'm not sure where that stands in the current plans.  I'm not so
worried about the efficiency, but making it explicit the way entry points do
is a clear win.

And more extensible to additional resolution methods in the future.
