Actually, the connection to the frontend is persistent.  You can
keep whatever state you like in there.  So, allowing the first
ten invocations of a system call and then denying the 11th would
not be a problem at all.

I believe that keeping this out of Systrace is a good approach
as it allows you to support more complex and sophisticated fault
injection.
