You may want to have a protected singleton or task singleton, the same
way you may want an entity to be aliased or constant.

You do Aliased or Constant on selective entities, you can do Protected
or Task on selective entities the same way.

By the way, although this construct may seems strange to one who never
use it (I use it, at least, I'm experiencing with it, so it does not
seems strange to me), no troubles at all comes with it. This
particular construct does not brake any language design principle.
