But this is the design, it is why everything is setup like this - we
didn't create a new op to allocate nesting domains, we made a flexible
user allocator.

Yes, that is the reality today. If someone comes to use the more
complete interface they need to fix that comment..

Yes, this logic is not ideal. The parent is the request for nesting,
not user_data. user_data is the generic creation parameters, which are
not supported outside nesting
