+  * qemu: Introduce ``absolute`` clock offset
+
+    The ``absolute`` clock offset type allows to set the guest clock to an
+    arbitrary epoch timestamp at each start. This is useful if some VM needs
+    to be kept set to an arbitrary time for e.g. testing or working around
+    broken software.
