I'll reword this as: * qemu: Add flags to keep or remove TPM state for ``virDomainUndefineFlags`` ``VIR_DOMAIN_UNDEFINE_TPM`` and ``VIR_DOMAIN_UNDEFINE_KEEP_TPM`` specify accordingly to delete or keep a TPM's persistent state directory structure and files when undefining a domain. In virsh the flags are exposed as ``--tpm`` and ``--keep-tpm`` for the sub-command ``undefine``. and I'll put it under the 'Improvements' section.

I'll reword this and add a disclaimer that use of this tool may de-sync the state and thus should be used at own risk: * Add ``virt-qemu-qmp-proxy`` for emulating a QMP socket for libvirt managed VMs ``virt-qemu-qmp-proxy`` tool provides a way to expose an emulated QMP server socket for a VM managed by libvirt. This allows existing QMP-only clients to work with libvirt managed VMs. **Note:** libvirt is not interpreting the communication between the tool using the proxy and qemu itself, so any state-changing commands may desynchronize libvirt. Use at your own risk.

The stats reported in this group are totally undocumented. It doesn't make much sense until that is addressed to advertise it's presence as users simply won't be able to use them properly. I'll see whether adding docs before the release is feasible or not. In the meanwhile I'll push the 1/3 and 2/3
