Hm, haven't planned that because qcow_read() is used in a much more
common code path, but in theory the very same approach should work there
(and someone seems to have done this already for qcow1?).

Don't know how the emulation behaves performance wise though,
qcow_read() is used for each cluster allocation. I guess the difference
is negligible?

Right, this looks the same.
