the filter capacitor built in it that you would find in a telephone master socket.

The 1.8uF capacitor is the bell capacitor, it allows AC ringing current to reach the bell(s) via terminal 3 for those phones that do not have their own bell capacitor.

Has anyone suggested that Elliott has, or is planning to get, one of those plastic jobbies?
 
To be fair, those plastic jobbies do actually work - they are the right shape to push the wires in without damaging the terminal. They just "aren't very robust" and will only do a handful of terminations before they are worn out.
For the same reason, I have to wonder how robust the plastic bits on these new master sockets are - will they handle more than one or two termination cycles ?
