We can't use query-balloon because this changes query-balloon from synchronous to asynchronous, and this is an incompatible change. Now, adding a new command to do this was my first proposal on this: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2012-02/msg00983.html But Anthony suggested doing this through qom, which I agree that is a simpler & cleaner interface. > That qom-get interface forces me to do 6 API calls to get all information!
