Hmm, I'm not actually sure myself.  I know Keven recently added some
code in his blockdev parsing that aliased old commands to re-inject
themselves back into a QDict in the preferred spelling, before passing
the QDict on down to the final client that handles the options; maybe he
has some better ideas on creating a command line shorthand while still
keeping QMP fully-structured.
