The point is that the distinction you're making here between volumes
and everything else is a bit arbitrary, and I think this patch as it
is will make it more work rather than less to move towards having a
set of capability flags per resource type. The advantage of the
alternative is mostly that it's less invasive, so easier to change
later.
