Running Rails console on heroku, in sandbox mode

Couldn't find it in the docs, nor on SO, but is there a way to run the Rails (3.2.x) console in sandbox mode on heroku (Celadon Cedar), equivalent to 

rails console --sandbox

If you're here because rails console --sandbox stopped working for you as of 09/23, you'll need to explicitly add quotes around your rails command to get Heroku to recognize it.

heroku run 'rails console --sandbox' -a your-app

For a more "the Heroku way" alternative, heroku run console --sandbox does the trick as well:

$ heroku run console --sandbox
Running `console --sandbox` attached to terminal... up, run.6024

[...]
