Hi,

Would you mind help confirm why qom-get command is not supported by qemu
monitor, but only qapi?

Is this a feature (qom-get in monitor) totally useless for some reason, or it is
still not implemented yet?

Thank you very much!

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.
