Just because it's not implemented; a few people have tried to implement
it (including me in 2016); but it tends to get stuck because some QOM objects
are more compelex than simple integer/strings and there didn't used
to be any way to print other objects out easily.
The most recent thing in this was Ricardo's 'Show values and description
when using "qom-list"' series.
