# Similar to `makeExtensible`, but expects you to implement the
# final interface for the result. Specifically, it takes an extra
# argument: a function that takes the final result and the `extend`
# function as arguments, and returns a transformed result
# (preferably one that contains the `extend` function). This is
# mainly useful for getting to choose what to name the `extend`
# function in the resulting attribute set. But it's also useful for
# having an internal structure that extensions can see, but the user
# facing code cannot.

# interface, a `self` view of the output interface is also
