Comment 4 for bug 1753938

Sadly since this can't get upstream in time I'm (for now) forced to remove it.
It is just that sort of non-upstream Delta that might become a long term maintenance pain e.g. as discussed upstream "... Sadly, once the QMP is released, we don't want to be changing it ...".

That combined with the fact that it was post FF and is a feature and also had no info ahead of time what it is about or anything else for now only lets me revert it to avoid issues inthe 18.04 life cycle.

Get me right, I like the change but for now need to follow the rules and think on 18.04 full lifecycle.

I'd love to see it in qemu thou, so if you:
- get it upstreamed in the next ~2 weeks please open a new bug against qmeu (Ubuntu)
- Link/mention the new bug here and refer to this bug from the new one
- make the new bug a Feature Freeze exception
- explain in the new bug all you can to convince the release Team.
- Get an FFe ack of the release Team on here
- put the final patches in qemu (patchname or dep3 header should refer to the new bug this time)
- If you want review provide commits against git.debian.org/git/pkg-qemu/qemu.git branch ubuntu-bionic-2.11
- I can help you then with regression tests, uploads, ... as needed
