To be fair, qemu needs it for a new nice-but-not-too-important feature, but it got the ball rolling and made us realize that also plenty of others like Gnome / KDE would like to see the transition to fuse3 happen. Also fuse upstream strongly encourages a change since 2019. So it is not just "because of qemu" as that could be debated-away by the feature being not too important. But overall it is an important enough change.
