@Value.Check and @Value.Style(of = "new") could be mostly supported

[cjhopman]

Most use of @Value.Check doesn't actually do normalization, it just does checking. This should be fairly easy to support even when the constructors are directly exposed.

This might also be an indication that the ad-hoc normalization deserves its own annotation rather than reusing @Value.Check (which is quite non-obvious itself).

Thank you for creating a request. If I understand correctly, the suggestion is to allow calling precondition checking methods from within constructors (at the end of construction). I guess we can frame it as when we don't do normalization and have a check method we call it at the end of construction for of="new" style.
I understand and somewhat share your thinking around separate annotation/feature for normalization, but it's, probably, not worth it at the moment wrt compatibility and cost-to-benefit ratio

Yeah, that's exactly what I was thinking.
