perhaps allowing suggested_init() to have a keyword argument to handle flipping would work:

• ignore_config
• ignore_user_config
• for_asimov

Why this is interesting: it could be used to build (pre-fit) Asimov datasets even if users provide non-default initial values for constrained parameters. It may be interesting to (optionally?) pick up non-default inits for unconstrained parameters anyway.

if with maximal_pars you mean the par value that maximizes the cconstraint pdf, i'd rather call this mode_values() perhaps
