Comment 7 for bug 1160749

The issue with the force option it can break existing admin scripts and tools.

What is your opinion instead of using "force", you should use a "check" Boolean argument.

The behavior without "check" will be the existing behavior.

With "check" it will refuse the update if one of limits will be reached.

Or you can add the force option to the v3 API only.

It is part of the admin API , usually the admins know why they want to limit the quota, and usually if an admin wants to limit something he has strong reason.
