+  * qemu: Record proper ``backing`` format for overlays of qcow2+luks images
+
+    Libvirt would record ``luks`` instead of ``qcow2`` into the metadata. In
+    practice this is a problem only when inspecting images manually via
+    ``qemu-img`` as with libvirt users must use full specification of the
+    backing chain in the domain XML which supersedes information recorded in
+    the image metadata.
