Felix, I can work on a format inspector module for that, yep.

AFAIK, we're not supposed to support that format anywhere. What service(s) did you test that with to hit the problem? Presumably it's a case where you called it raw, format_inspector determined it was raw (because it didn't recognize it) and then we failed to treat it as raw further down the pipeline. Knowing what/where that is may mean we just need to coerce the format to what we determined it is (i.e. raw) when we called qemu-img on it.
