For sure IMO. Maybe not in a hurry to avoid breakages until the whole tracing infrastructure has settled, but long-term to ease scripting etc. Still, let's not add this as an old-style monitor command, rather convert it to the new style, maybe blocking QMP for now. I'll post the required infrastructure for that blocking along my next device_show series (hopefully the next days).
