Tbh, I think it is scratching the surface doing it only for commands.
Furthermore, it's pushing the burdden of conditional generation at a
different level, at the C level, which is probably not so nice if some day
it targets a different language.
If the main issue is using #\w* for preprocessing, we could use something
else like #! (oh no someone else did it, there are many ex where comments
are not just comments), or .\w* (.ifdef / .endif etc).
As you said, the main goal of this patch was to disable commands from the
qapi-dispatch that are currently disabled with the middle mode.
Do you think it would be reasonable to accept this simple approach for now,
until we find a better more suitable solution? After all, this is internal,
we can iterate. Or should we drop this patch for this series? I don't like
seeing it delayed by weeks...
