The single biggest problem with the native-to-xml conversion
is that it is totally clueless about '-device' handling. We
really badly need to add support for that. Ideally we'd
improve things to the extent that it can cover all the args
that we're able to generate in the test suite. We'd then
make it a requirement to have both directions work when adding
new CLI arg support
