Force push is in general a restricted activity which requires special
permissions to be granted on a case by case basis.

In general, we discourage force pushing on public, published branches
due to the problems it has been known to give those with pre-existing
checkouts of the affected branches. Given this is a semi-private work
branch, it should be fine in this case if needed.

Given the nature of this work, I can't help but think it might be
better to do it in the main frameworks branch however at this point
(many hands make light work, etc)
