Not particularly! My thought process was mostly just this seems like a simple
enough addition that it would probably be easy to add it now when we don't
have any users upstream yet rather than building up faux device users in rust
and potentially having to refactor later to add such an argument.

I don't think the refactoring would be that much work either, but it seemed
harmless to just get it over with now.
