I'm using the 'qemu-monitor-command' via virsh to execute backups of VMs using the \
'block-dirty-bitmap-*' commands. The incr. backups are working great but I need a way \
to check the progress/status of the backup operations. I especially want to use this \
in scripting the backups.

For example I run the below operation, and I get an id back, but can't find a way to \
check the status of the job with the ID. I've watched this video \
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQK5ANionpU and had hope but it looks like most of \
the features talked about in the video are experimental and not available yet. I'm \
running Manjaro as the host OS so I should have access to the latest and greatest \
                libvirt/qemu versions. Thanks.
