i think it is not canonical as it tends to change it's API to workaround

i'd rather not read the above.

i think canonicity should be more about the object's API than about the
implementation itself.

that is desireable from my pov (but there is still some work todo on the
iemnet part, which i would like to be not hindered by legacy code)
