This is unnecessary in a well-designed project.  Rather than directly
instantiating, encapsulate the object creation in a method, then
override the method that does the creation in a mock object.  No code
mods and certainly no engine mods are needed to test properly.

The feature is neat, but not a good candidate for core as proposed imo.
