Thanks for the report; on an older version of Qemu that still has the -name
option, using the file gives an error (There is no option group 'name'),
but on the lastest one it does, as you say, just ignore it.

You can add a launchpad entry if you like; however sicne I suspect
it's my rework of --name to use QemuOpts that broke it, I'll add it
to my list.
Thanks again for reporting it.
