I would agree with you if this was either permanent or the replacement was to be implemented in QEMU. However, this is a temporary dependency and once we have replacement ready, we can just drop this without having to synchronize with other components and without worrying about possible issues when QEMU and libvirt are not upgraded in a single step.
