David N. Williams writes:

I would have added the recommended field type definers:
DFIELD: 2 cells
SFIELD: 2 cells (caddr len)

And the specifications:

12.6.2.jjj DFIELD:
d-field-colon FACILITY EXT
The semantics of DFIELD: are identical to the execution
semantics of the phrase
ALIGNED 2 CELLS +FIELD

12.6.2.kkk SFIELD:
s-field-colon FACILITY EXT
The semantics of SFIELD: are identical to the execution
semantics of the phrase
ALIGNED 2 CELLS +FIELD

Anton Ertl writes that Gforth implements 2FIELD:.
