Just tested this on a F13 host, and it didn't like the the preallocated
option:
$ qemu-img create -f qcow2 -o preallocated=metadata testvm.qcow2 20G
Unknown option 'preallocated'
qemu-img: Invalid options for file format 'qcow2'.
$
Looks like we'd need to add some kind of testing for the capability
first. :)
