You can also check by browsing the qtree (different device model names).That was my biggest objection to the previous iterations. Later versions changed to use an attribute (selecting the backend).

No we won't. The other approach was creating a mini-qdev as a mechanism to hide the fact that we have two different implementations of the same device.
We need to expose this information to the user in some fashion. The type is the natural way to do it.
