For now maybe just fork the policies into two - with and without dry run attr. We'll improve the granularity later when doing the YAML conversion.Not quite sure I follow this. I guess just add a separate policy array with dry_run and then make that the policy for the flash update command? I don't think flash update is strict yet, and I'm not sure what the impact of changing it to strict is in terms of backwards compatibility with the interface.
Strictness is a separate issue, the policy split addresses just the support discoverability question.
