But what if you want both on a shared memory system?

No problem: Then you provide an optional more complex API that gives you additional control. That's the beautiful thing about Cuda, it has an easy API for the common case that suffices 99% of the time, and additional APIs for the complex case if you really need that. Instead of making you go through the complex API all the time.
