But to be clear, my intention is that we're not adding this
feature to v1 (which, to my understanding, has been
deprecated).
If it's added by virtue of it sharing infrastructure with v2,
then it's fine, but only if the mount option still works to
guard against unintentional enablement (if not we'll
also short-circuit v1, or add knobs if ppl really want
it in v1 as well).
If it's not added at all, then I don't have any complaints :)
