True, but I noted that in notes below the ---

IDC if one or the other is removed... I just didn't want it "lost". I
don't always read git history's and others don't necessarily read code
comments to get data such as this. Since it's not one of those every day
tasks having it at least "somewhere" will hopefully help "someone".

OK did that and yep a few more things showed up. Now I've learned 2 new
things today - it's a really good day!

The vxhs will be enabled by query-qmp-schema introspection (similar to
gluster.debug).  I learned that yesterday - it's been a banner week of
learning new stuff!

Sure it could be, but I think that's overkill since I'm changing the
DO_TEST as well. Still I can drop this since trying to keep things up to
