Calling IPC in a constructor is unusual and confusing, and can be
considered bad form. There are multiple reasons for this :
• Users can't obtain an instance of the class without calling the
constructor, but they can't always afford an IPC where they need
this, forcing them to know about the implementation detail and
sometimes design around it.
• On a related but generalized note, constructors should usually
be fast for the same range of reasons.
• Having a separate method to register the agent simply gives more
flexibility to the app.
• It's also a lot easier to test.
But also we can't fix it without an update to the API, so here it is.
Another reason for doing this is consistency with the NetworkProvider
API.
