Controlling autosize threshold

Is there a way to control when FlexVol autosize is triggered? The documentation states that its when a volume is "about to run out of free space". However, once its crossed 95%, someone has already gotten woken up in the middle of the night and isn't about to trust that Magic Things Will Happen if free space falls any lower.

As-is, it seems to be a nice last-ditch effort, but I'd like to be able to set a threshold (~85-90%) for autosize to kick in to ensure that there's no false sense of security once utilization has started creeping way up and that its clear something really must be done to provide more space.
