Yes, since QEMU treats it as SCSI, we could do the same for -hdX.
I meant that we shouldn't correct command line like
-device ide-cd,drive=ddd,bus=ide.0 to SCSI.

But it seems domxml-to-native can't even parse the command line libvirt
outputs for disks at the moment:
error: internal error: missing index/unit/bus parameter in drive
'file=/var/iso/f19.iso,if=none,id=drive-ide0-1-0,readonly=on,format=raw'
