Long story short

A customer allows regular user to use forwards.
Customer want to disable user: in which case they want t force a forward in addition to the forward already defined.
When enabling back the user they want to remove only the forwards they set and not those positionned by the user.

Indeed they wish not to maintain a state.

Proposed solution

As mapping is mostly an unstructured field we can easily add a comment into it.

This allows storing a comment which allows to distnguish automatically added forwrds from the others.

(I can also see functonnal application for this)

Alternatives

New mapping type: not realistic, generalization of RRT seems like a needlessly hard problem.

Allows saving contextual information, dates etc...
in order to better contextualize RRT entries

We ended up playing down the customer requirements.

I end up not needing this in James for now, though the idea is indeed interesting and could be revived in the future.

(Feedback welcome: if this makes sense I'd be happy to polish this POC and get it inside James)
