Perhaps lost by having the tweak dir perms handling patch sneak in...

Seems reasonable to me (ACK)... Should there be some way to document how
this would be added/usable in the passthrough description in
formatdomain? Or somewhere else? Not sure how anyone would know the
magic incantation to define/use this... Even though this was posted
before freeze, not 100% clear whether it's push-able for this release cycle.
