+This backend supports all common storage properties, and adds two
+additional properties. The `path` property is used to specify the
+directory. This needs to be an absolute file system path.
+
+The optional `dirs` property allows for the default layout to be
+changed. It consists of a comma-separated list of identifiers in
+the following format:
+
+ vtype:path
+
+Where `vtype` is one of the allowed content types for the storage, and
+`path` is an absolute file system path.
