Comment(by simonmar):

 I suppose it should do as the name suggests: disallow the syntactic forms
 associated with named fields.  That is, construction (`C{..}` in
 expressions), pattern matching, definition, and update.

 The point is to give us back the syntax, so we can use it for something
 else.
