Also, it appears that it requires the allowed directory to be specified
in authorized_keys. Mine uses an external list of allowed directories,
so I don't need lots of lines (and separate keys?) in authorized_keys in
order to deal with the several directories I back up per host.

Rsync includes a script named rrsync that handles this perfectly.

And I do my backups (using dirvish) as root, using a key with a

FWIW, that forced command is here:

It's rather unpolished and undocumented, but comments very welcome :-)
I've also had an issue due to some server-side-only arguments to
rsync being undocumented, which means I can't validate them, and
basically have to accept anything ... I'd love to know why this is or
has to be the case :-) I didn't get any particularly useful answers
back in January 2019 ...
Cheers,
