The full set of storage flags are added into the metadata attribute of the catalog so that they are readily available to users that want them. However, these are parsed from the config files and so don't include the product storage locations for pre-generated Intake-ESM datastores (e.g. the CMIP datastores). Ideally, we should have a complete list and this should be automatically included in the documentation so we don't have to update every time a new product is added.
