I've needed this in the past and wasn't aware there was an opinion against
it. I think I see the concern with SoC but surely hardcoding the path is
as bad or worse. Is there another solution? Syntax aside, would it be
better to limit access to root, current and immediate parent (which maybe
could default to root?).
