I only see this series now and it's a bit unfortunate... throttling options
are now also available for fsdev. Only QMP-style names were added though,
and they appear in the documentation. I agree the names are long, and the
result isn't pretty on 80 columns, but it is readable still.

I don't really want to add code, just to have shorter names and a prettier
output. But it would be a good thing for fsdev to benefit from this new
documentation... any suggestion how to do that ?
