_.partial support on constructors.

[jdalton]

Partial application is great and can be applied to constructors as well. For example:

function MyWidget(name, options) {
  // ..
}

MyWidget.prototype.get = function() { /*..*/ };

var MyWidgetWithCoolOpts = _.partial(MyWidget, _, {/*some options*/});

var widget = new MyWidgetWithCoolOpts('foo');
widget instanceof MyWidget // true
typeof widget.get // function

However, currently Underscore does not support this. It could if it shared a bit of the bind helper code to do the instanceof check.
