Makes sense, but relying on developers getting their cc: right every
time is a setting us up for failure.
Our tool to help with getting cc: wrong less often is the MAINTAINERS
file. Could one of the libvirt developers watch changes to qemu-doc
appendix "Deprecated features"? Would putting the appendix in its own
.texi help with that?
Sound like a good idea to put the appendix in its own texi file. Then
add an "R: libvir-list" entry for that file to MAINTAINERS and we should
be fine (at least for the people who use the get_maintainers.pl script).
