Hm!
I wonder if this is ever-so-slightly too soon for our friends over at
the libvirt project.
I don't think they have fully moved away from the non-blockdev
interfaces *just yet*, and I might encourage seeing the first full
libvirt release that does support and use it before we start the
deprecation clock.
(Juuuust in case.)
That's just me being very, very cautious though.
Peter Krempa, how do you feel about this?
