Shouldn't we at least recognize if there is a qcow2 file with the extension header set, at which point we can error out and tell the user their image is unsupported, rather than trying to use it without the data file?
I don't think it's scalable to do so unless qemu exposes a whitelist of supported extensions we can declare we support. Otherwise we are band-aiding stuff we lear that exists and ignore any other extensions.
