Passing validateBeforeSave:false via params.mongoose does not work.

[flight9]

Steps to reproduce

There is a Users Schema in my project with a password field which is set to 'required: true'.
Now I have to create a list of users using data from an excel file which does not offer any password value (because the boss hopes no password can be touched by client users).
So I have to skip the mongoose validation when I call feathers service to create a user.
I found in docs here that params.mongoose will help (see https://github.com/feathersjs-ecosystem/feathers-mongoose#paramsmongoose).
I use the code:

let createParams = {
  user: params.user,
  mongoose: { validateBeforeSave: false }
};
for (let k in newDocs) {
  let doc = newDocs[k];
  console.log('newDoc before:', JSON.stringify(doc, null, 2));
  let ok = await service.create(doc, createParams);
}

but it still validates the doc and throw an error Path password is required.

Expected behavior

Passing validateBeforeSave:false via params.mongoose should skip mongoose validating before creating.

Actual behavior

Passing validateBeforeSave:false via params.mongoose does not work.
