In response to discussion about how best to enable this feature, and how it
interacts with the existing "Directory-based name mapping" feature, I'd
like to update the specification.
Capsule summary:
Instead of adding a new boolean flag to enable this feature, replace the
existing boolean controlling directory-based name mapping with a new
property "config/directory_based_mapping" with values:
none - no directory based mapping
name - existing name-based mapping
idmu - new IDMU-based mapping
To aid in the transition, idmapd(1M) will update the system to use the new
property when it encounters the old property.
Enclosed please find the revised specification and diffs.
I don't personally think this change requires significant additional review
time, but if the committee wants me to restart the timer it'd be OK.
