Then it is better not to be sent in the 1st place.

Do you have any example of why you want to do?  When I dessigned
subsections, I looked at all the changes that we had from 0.11 to 0.12,
subsections can handle all of them.  Just curious about what you need.\

Notice that ignoring subsections at this point is not trivial, as
(sub)sections don't have a size field.  Working on getting size there,
but it is a long term project (it requires 1st to change everything to
VMState to be able to change how QEMUFile works).

Later, Juan.
