I'd go for that route, but the new `sid` parameter is needed to track on
which node a service puts its load on, i.e. where we need to remove it
later. That's information we didn't get before and we unfortunately
cannot make it optional, e.g. shoving it in the already existing
StaticNodeUsage as a Option<_> field. (Haven't tested it yet, but this
shouldn't be an API break for perlmod?)

Another approach would be to allow both the non-granular and granular
behavior to coexist - at least for the 9.x series, even though it might
be a little ugly, it's probably not too bad.

What do you think?
