This is likely to pessimize some code, since most allocators do not
have an exception-specification on their construct members.

No.
Whether to allow moving from std::initializer_list is an active topic,
see

No, this is not suitable for stage 3. It seems too risky.
We can reconsider it during stage 1, but I'd like to see (at least) a
new test showing a bug with the current code. For example, a type with
a move constructor that is noexcept, but when used with a
scoped_allocator_adaptor (which calls something other than the move
constructor) we incorrectly move elements, and lose data when an
exception happens.
