+1. Could only be an issue if somebody were tempted to have time-varying
entries in them, but it's hard to see why that could be a good idea.
Should we enforce this for *all* handler objects? If only index AMs,
why only them?

One too many "consts" there. Pointer to const object seems fine.
The other part is either meaningless or will cause problems.
