That was the initial proposal, but I'm uncomfortable with that, too. "any" really implies "doesn't matter"; if we overload it to have a preference, it becomes really hard to tell which ones really care and which ones don't. Then refactoring becomes harder (performance regression when you alter code). So yeah, not ideal, but this seemed like the minimal API extension.
