Comment (by davidsarah):

 Replying to [comment:74 kevan]:
 > How about {{{offset=replace}}} for the current whole file replacement
 behavior, {{{offset >= 0}}} to replace part of the file, and {{{offset <
 0}}} throws an exception for now? We'll say that {{{offset=replace}}} by
 default (i.e.: if the caller doesn't specify their own offset) so that
 callers get the whole file replacement behavior that they're accustomed to
 by default.

 Why have two ways to express that? I'd suggest just requiring the offset
 parameter to be omitted to get whole-file replacement.
