Just to note you can do this today by either:
- vdsm custom hook
- change of engine config if you know your hosts are only 7.0
- iirc, also possible by editing the specific osinfo config file to add the flags there

This should work today. Only the wizard to 'configure local storage' requires this at it performs create DC, create cluster, move host to new cluster, add storage domain.
The 'move host to new cluster' requires host to be in maint. Adding another local domain. Should not require this.

Focus here will be gluster for 3.6
