roRegistry Transient Storage

Where in the docs does it explain how to specify that a Write operation for roRegistry should be transient, as described in the component reference manual? Other than this paragraph below, the word "transient" does not appear anywhere else in the doc, and I cannot find how to specify a write to be transient as described here:


"The Registry also supports the use of a special “Transient” registry section. This registry section allows the application to store attributes that have the lifetime of a single boot. Within a specific boot session, these values will be persistent to the application and stored as any other registry value. Whenever the user reboots the Roku Streaming Player, the “Transient” registry section is removed and the values no longer persist. This technique is useful for caching data to minimize network access, yet still ensuring that this data is always fresh after a system reboot."
