I think that is the best answer. Replace sysadmin with galaxy-admin.
Because Ray will be installed by him. If you have different Ray versions
that will be handled by the toolshed to enable reproducibility.

Possible, but you loose reproducibility, but maybe a good starting point
to write the wrapper, the installation instruction can be hooked up
later.
