The above "PREFERRED" settings doesn't capture QMP commands, does it?
The '1:qemu' is supposed to do it.  

FWIW, after some debugging sessions with Dan Berrangé, I have been using
the following filters:

    "1:libvirt 1:qemu 1:conf 1:security 3:event 3:json 3:file 3:object 1:util"

Should the document be updated with the above filters?  (Assuming this
set looks good to the reviewers.)
