So pretty much a worthless "keep out" sign [0], can one be even
enterprise ready without those? ;-)

Anyhow, fine by me, but I then still would prefer having this saved
as structured data with an explicit type so that we can easily extend
this with an option for actually enforcing such a consent, if ever
requested.

Maybe we can even add it as encoded text to an existing config, for PVE
the datacenter one would be a good fit, for PMG with also have a cluster
wide one IIRC and for PBS we could just add it to the node.cfg (and cache
inside the http daemon).
