Upstream qemu 1.3 is adding two new monitor commands, 'drive-mirror' and 'block-job-complete'[1], which can drive live block copy and storage migration. Additionally, RHEL 6.3 had backported an earlier version of most of the same functionality, but under the names '__com.redhat_drive-mirror' and '__com.redhat_drive-reopen' and with slightly different JSON arguments, which we can support without too much extra effort.
I know that it's convenient to have this in the upstream release as it would remove the need to backport that feature every time. Said this, I still don't like the idea dragging this stuff into the upstream code as upstream would be responsible for supporting that from the time it went in.
I am willing to give in on this if somebody else thinks that it would be beneficial, but right now I'm not convinced that we want this upstream.
