  A proposal to allow trusted code _outside_ of the class lexical scope to access private state

  

There one or two additional addon specs like Private Declarations, but the other private specs are not dependent on this. I believe, and I haven't been keeping up with them as much lately (they've been hanging at stage 3 for sooo long), that brand checks was something they wanted to have ready before the rest going out.
