I wonder how long this "latest" will be true.  Either say "latest as of
yyyy-mm-dd" or QEMU version or just leave the example out.

Pointless condition, you can assign it unconditionally.

Long line.

No heck for the boundaries that you mentioned in the example?  I would
expect that boundaries to be checked when they are written there.  I
understand that it doesn't make sense since we can't know them and
adjusting them after every change in qemu is plain wrong.  I guess I
just wanted to say I was surprised =)

ACK with those first three things fixed.
