Public bug reported:
It whould be nice if the qemu-ga allowed received messages to contain
fields which is not part of the spec. In my example I have a host which
sends the following request:
{"execute":"guest-exec","arguments":{"path":"prl_nettool","capture-
output":true,"execute-in-shell":false,"arg":[...]}}
Right now this request is rejected with the following error:
{"error": {"class": "GenericError", "desc": "Parameter 'execute-in-
shell' is unexpected"}}
My situation is the hosting provider I use does have some customized
solution which sends some extra arguments. I have manually patched my
qemu-ga so it accepts the "execute-in-shell" parameter but I don't think
this should be necessary.
Instead of "Error" it should just be a "warning" returned to the user of
qemu-ga but the call should still be executed.
