The focus will be first on visualizing the buffer (user_print), but who knows what happens once the services is also exposed via QMP. > > On the other hand, I do prefer a QBuffer type, specially because we can > have buffer operations. The q<type>.c files look sufficiently simply, guess I will add a buffer type. Still, hex-encoding is probably the best representation for QMP.
