I was going to say do we have user space for this yet? I also suspect
getting this implementation right is going to part of the SVM work. I
personally rather leave this disabled until we get the SVM
implementation for this all worked out so we can freely change this if
required.

I can't imagine any user space is really demanding this to be enabled
yet.
