IMO, if there's some risk to breaking management or other tools, I'd
rather it be left to major releases. And if these values are already misnamed
for 2.1.0 and prior, I don't think we stop it from poliferating much more by
pushing the fix up by a few months.

I'm not sure in which case management could break (except for qom-get). Andreas, can you explain?
