I am surprised that Markus pointed you to my aliases work because the
conclusion after reviewing my last attempt was that he doesn't want the
feature in the proposed form and he wasn't sure if he wants it at all.
To be honest, I considered this one dead.

Even if magically a solution appeared that everyone agreed to, don't
hold your breath, I'm working on different things now and not planning
to get back to QAPI stuff before 7.1 (and preferably not before meeting
Markus in person and discussing the design before I spend the time to
produce another thing that will never be merged). I am hoping to get
back to QAPI later, but I was mostly planning with continuing the QOM
integration, not aliases.
