Will any new features be tied to constructors?

Dmitry's design does *not* depend on that. In fact Dmitry's design includes this[Element.init]() in the constructor. See https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-webapps/2015JanMar/0230.html

The essence of Dmitry's design is to disallow custom allocation, while allowing custom initialization. This allows you to optionally decouple the two stages when necessary (upgrades, cloning, etc.) while also getting the goodness where author code doing `new MyElement(...)` calls both built-in allocation and custom initialization immediately.
