JSON does not permit a trailing ',' before '}'; which means you did
not actually paste an actual QMP response here.

Is there a default value of ecx for when it is not provided by the
user but needed by the leaf?  Or is it an error if ecx is omitted in
that case?  Similarly, is it an error if ecx is provided but not
needed?

Should be in-eax, in-ecx.
