On platforms where the support option is supported then I would think 
that supportedOptions should include it, otherwise I could imagine users 
getting confused by the UOE. For the tests then having them pass then 
the option is supported but can't be set due to lack of privileges seems 
reasonable to me. I guess it's a subjective and maybe others might have 
opinions on this.
