+          qemu: Enable firmware autoselection
+        </summary>
+        <description>
+          Libvirt allows users to provide loader path for some time now.
+          However, this puts some burden on users because they need to
+          know what firmware meeets their requirements. Now that qemu
+          ships firmware description files this burden can be moved onto
+          libvirt. It is as easy as setting <code>firmware</code>
+          attribute to <code>os</code> element (accepted values are
+          <code>bios</code> and <code>efi</code>). Moreover, libvirt
+          automatically enables domain features needed for firmware it
+          chooses.
