I've committed the DSM registry changes. I apologize for the lackluster
commit message. My attempts at including all the details ended up being
super wordy and hard to read, so I decided to keep it terse and leave out
some of the context.
I've also attached a rebased patch that addresses all the latest feedback.
A reworked verison of the test patch is also included, but that's mostly
intended for CI purposes and is still not intended for commit (yet).
