Comment:

 yeah, augeas is a fucking piece of joke.

 I tried setting options today with it and it's totally of no use.

 just look at this:
 {{{
 augtool> set /files/etc/resolv.conf/options/rotate 1
 augtool> save
 error: Failed to execute command
 error: saving failed (run 'print /augeas//error' for details)
 augtool> print /augeas//error
 /augeas/files/etc/resolv.conf/error = "put_failed"
 /augeas/files/etc/resolv.conf/error/path =
 "/files/etc/resolv.conf/options"
 /augeas/files/etc/resolv.conf/error/lens =
 "/usr/share/augeas/lenses/dist/build.aug:105.37-.61:"
 /augeas/files/etc/resolv.conf/error/message = "Failed to match \n    ({
 /ndots|timeout|attempts/ = /[0-9]+/ } | { /debug|rotate|no-check-
 names|inet6|ip6-bytestring|edns0/ } | { /ip6-dotint/ })({
 /ndots|timeout|attempts/ = /[0-9]+/ } | { /debug|rotate|no-check-
 names|inet6|ip6-bytestring|edns0/ } | { /ip6-dotint/ })*\n  with tree\n
 { \"rotate\" = \"1\" }"
 }}}

 And that's for most used and widespread file on unix systems.
