The DIP doesn't mention anything about constructors. It should mention 
if this attribute can be applied to constructors. It should also mention 
if it applies to if the attribute is attached to the type and a 
constructor is called for that type.

For constructors, there is mostly no other option of error handling than 
exceptions. Perhaps an `out` parameter could work.
