Okay - I was guessing we didn't have anything hooked up for this
case. To be honest though, it's probably fairly far down on the list of
priorities, I can't imagine this is even a remotely common thing to need
to do (I'd almost be surprised if it's ever used).

Where do we want to track this? I'm a bit inclined to track it in a
github issue rather than in any internal bugs system.
