Grouping is fine, and your suggestion makes sense to me.  One of the
nice things of QMP is that since it is name/value based, you don't have
to worry about inserting a name in the middle if that makes more sense
logically (it doesn't break backwards compatibility with old QMP
clients, the way that inserting something into the middle of a C struct
breaks all callers that were using the old struct layout).
