We've already documented that HMP is an unstable interface; if it is
easier for you to drop commands than to retrofit them to cover new QMP,
it won't hurt my feelings (libvirt only uses QMP).  It boils down to a
judgment call of whether the ease of convenience for a developer's human
interface outweighs the burden of maintenance.
