This is not available right now, and what'd be the usecae for that?

You can certainly change it downstream. Simply copy it to
/etc/systemd/system, and edit it there. It will then take precedence.

It's totally OK if packages drop in tmpfiles.d/ snippets that remove
stuff below /var at boot. Make the change above to the default files
does not appear desirable to me, as it would break these very valid
usecases.
