I tend to agree that we should revert the QMP change; without a way to
introspect whether the '*device' parameter exists, libvirt can't use it,
and we already agreed that we really need something better anyways with
regards to fd passing, image format selection, the ability to limit to
one head at a time, and so forth.  I'd rather defer it all to 1.6 when
we can get the entire design right, than to have 1.5 expose something
that can't be reliably used and which might change based on designing
the rest of the improvements.
