I'm very lukewarm on this one.  Why is this a plugin-level feature?
For other protocol things we have used command line options (eg. -o /
-n and the various TLS options).

Also I understand that this found a bug in qemu-nbd which is great,
but why else would it ever be needed?

Maybe we can control this with some kind of command line protocol
flags, and try to emphasize that, like the -D flag, this is for
testing only and is not API.

Rich.
