Of course a library function (like dojo.connect) that is called to advise a 
method on an object doesn't have control of how the object was created. If 
it is an instance of user class (and not dynamic), this function will this 
fail. This functionality is pretty core and heavily used by Dojo and I 
believe is used by other libraries as well. Of course existing code will 
continue to work, but it will be disappointing to find this function fail 
for new objects created with ES4 functionality. I don't know an easier 
solution, other than real AOP support.
