Yes, this is supported in systemd (though without the "").

It's (tersely) documented in systemd.exec(5).

My guess is that we'll cover about 90% or so of the usecases of cgroups
if we make it easy to assign cgroup-based limits to VMs, to system
services and to users, like we can do with libvirt and systemd. There's
still a big chunk of the 10% who want more complex setups with more
arbitrary groupings, but I have my doubts the folks doing that are the
ones who need a UI for that.
