[systemd-devel] Add ambient capability support to execution environment config?

For non-root services, getting Capabilities= and CapabilityBoundingSet= to
do anything useful is rather tricky.  Would it make sense to add
AmbientCapabilities= to set ambient (and, implicitly, inheritable)
capabilities, which will be available in Linux 4.3?

Alternatively, there could be a boolean option to change the meaning of
Capabilities so that it uses ambient capabilities instead of whatever it
currently does.
