I'm confused. You want to register objects after instance register?  

+1, I think it's an anti-pattern.  

Could you elaborate a bit please?

Mixing registering sub-objects before and after the instance is a bit
of an anti-pattern. Easy to introduce bugs during reload and reset /
error recovery. I thought that's what you were saying as well.
