So, I'm not necessarily against implementing something easier but we at
least wanna get the interface right, so that if we decide to do the full
thing later we can easily expand on the existing interface. ie. let's please
not be too hacky. I don't think it'd be that difficult to implement
per-cgroup disable-only operation that we can later expand to allow
re-enabling, right?

Thanks.
