It's simply that there's no direct UI for it but it's certainly  
supported. Since it's an admin thing, the UI is not that important  
though since an Admin knows how to edit objects.

That said, I agree that a UI option would be nicer. Feel free to  
create a jira issue for it and submit a patch.

Thanks
