=head3 Unrecognised Features

I'm still not sure how to handle what happens when somebody passes the name
of a feature which doesn't exist yet, but does in a future version.

Ideally, calling C<$_new_with_defaults()> should give you the same results in
perpetuity ( or at least, from the date this feature gets added )

For now I think the best thing to do is die fatally if a feature that is
requested can't be provided, as that will produce output other than is desired
and violate output consistency as a result.

This will just become a nightmare if somebody ever changes "The Default" for
a I<new> feature wherein, users have to I<< Opt-B<Out> >>, causing an
explosion on older versions where that feature didn't exist.

This should be a hazard to never even consider changing the default behaviour.
