I still don't see any obvious coverage of the new output, which makes it harder 
to test (I have to manually run qcow2.py on a file rather than seeing what 
changes in a ???.out file).  I know we said back in v9 that test 291 is not the 
right test, but that does not stop you from adding a new test just for that 
purpose.


The bulk of this series is touching a non-installed utility. At this point, I 
feel safer deferring it to 5.2 (it is a feature addition for testsuite use 
only, and we missed soft freeze), even though it has no negative impact to 
installed binaries.



Yes, it's absolutely OK to defer to 5.2.

Thanks a lot for taking a look at our series!
