Though this use case really isn't "class-private" --  it's more "package
private", but I don't think it's even that. The idea is to allow anyone to
make a class that plugs into this system -- so very much like a dunder, but
without the blessing of the standard library.

Maybe a semi-convention of "trunders" would make sense?
