I realized part way through the current development cycle that I couldn't do both the error work and my half of the block probing work we discussed back in November, so I punted the latter to the next cycle, missing the one little feature I quite obviously could do. Why is this "RFC for-2.3"? The patch is simple, and quite obviously does nothing unless you run with --no-format-probing. If libvirt wants it in 2.3, then I think we should consider it even at this late stage. If libvirt doesn't want it, or won't try to make use of it for another few months, I'm happy to drop the patch now and revisit the larger topic in the next cycle. I readily admit --no-format-probing is fugly. Better ideas are welcome.
