The problem with this is how to store that in metadata. As soon as all
paths have exactly the same metadata and provider names are not
mentioned there, separate paths properties are not possible at this
moment.
As dirty workaround, you may periodically run some script to enforce
active path on your specific preference.
That is in fact exactly how we did this at Panasas
