Thanks for your command.

But in your way, we will have to add wrapper function for every command. I think a general function to run all qmp command during test script design is must. Or It is difficult to design a common process to test all qmp command.

I still think make cmd command support parameters is better.  Even we have to handle the human case and the QMP case separately.

Thanks again!!!
