Using 'a=blob_plain' results in my browser (Firefox) trying to parse
the file and complaining loudly:

   SyntaxError: JSON.parse: unexpected character at line 1 column 1
                            of the JSON data

Changing it to 'a=blob' gives me a nice page which, among other
things, also contains a link to the raw version, so I would go
with that one instead.

Alternatively, you could just say

   See docs/interop/firmware.json in the QEMU source tree.

and leave the URL out entirely: it's not like users, who are the
target of the comment, will actually want to read the spec :)

+#

Leave an empty line here. You could even do something like

   # images intended for use with QEMU.
   #
   # ------------------------------------------
   #
   # When a domain is configured to use UEFI instead of standard

to make it extremely obvious the part after the cut is documentation
for the now obsolete configuration option.


Okay, I'll post v3. Hopefully everybody and every browser will be happy with it.
