Yes, I'm waiting for Markus' comments before applying this. Maybe we shouldn't add this to QMP yet, drive_add doesn't exist there either because we want to do it right with blockdev_add/del. On the other hand Markus should know much better than me what the right thing would look like - if he says that this interface will work with whatever we're going to get with blockdev_*, I'm fine with merging it.
