Harmless, but inconsistent.

It feels like > the vvfat option is redundant. I guess it is kind of redundant. The reason for it is that it's always been there, encoded in the filename as "fat:rw:..." - and the reason for that is that read-write vvfat is even more unreliable than read-only vvfat. So we have a read-only=false default in base, and a read-only=true default in vvfat. I'm not sure if changing this without breaking the command line is possible; but if it is, it involves vvfat-specific magic in drive_init(), which this simply isn't worth. > > +## > > +# @BlockdevOptionsGenericCOWFormat > > +# > > +# Driver specific block device options for image format that have no option > > +# besides their data source and an optional backing file. > > +# > > +# @file: reference to or definition of the data source block device > > Do you need to document this field... > > > +# @backing: #optional reference to or definition of the backing file > > block > > +# device (if missing, taken from the image file content).

I just wasn't careful enough when I added the inheritance. I'll drop them. Kevin
