I just did a tiny check with VirtualBox, and both 2.7.0 and 2.5.0 do
contain useful values (same as product/serial). Is it possibly that we
could swap chassis product/serial to board product/serial for the named
settings?

That would potentially break backwards compatibility, so I'm reluctant to do that.

I'm convinced by the argument that ${board-serial} is sufficiently useful, since ${serial} will apparently not be unique between blades. I'm less convinced that ${board-product} is useful (not least because there's no obvious reason to me why ${board-product} is more justifiable than ${board-manufacturer}, which hasn't been proposed).

Does anyone object to having just ${board-serial} included as a named setting?
