Bug Description
The current Qemu code included in Ubuntu has support for RBD (RADOS Block Device), part of the Ceph distributed filesystem.
Although Qemu supports RBD, Ubuntu doesn't build it with --with-rbd support, while librbd already available in Ubuntu.
It would be nice if the upcoming Ubuntu release (12.04) could ship with a Qemu version which has RBD support enabled.
Since librbd is available in the Ubuntu repositories it doesn't seem that hard to enable RBD support while building Qemu.

Thanks for submitting this bug.
We can't currently build with rbd because librbd-dev is in universe. It needs to go into main first.
However, pulling it into main as well as building qemu against it are planned for this cycle. Hopefully soon.
