Record Puns/Wildcards

I just noted that code like my_config = default_config {..} where name = "my project" description = "some longer text" gives me a syntax error, even if I have NamedFieldPuns and RecordWildCards extensions enabled. It seems that these extensions only work for record constructors and not for updating values. Is there a special reason puns/wildcards are not allowed in record updates?
