I just wanted to make clear that aside from function evaluations there's
no issue with using :initform. I think :initform is better for
documentation purposes (it will be shown as "default" in
describe-function, although that seems to be currently broken in
Emacs24), and it's also better in case you want to allow users to
customize objects using eieio-customize. Otherwise, it's more a matter
of style. I think constructors should be used to create somewhat
"dynamical" objects.
