Here, you spell it zero_grained=on,

So you're changing the default for better coverage and speed, but ensuring that 59 still covers the (slower) zero_grained=off. Seems reasonable.

Here, zeroed_grain=.  Which is it?

As a native speaker, my inclination is zero_grained; but I don't know the VMDK spec well enough to know if this is something in the spec, or just a term that qemu invented. And since we already have existing usage of one spelling, switching the spelling now would require a deprecation period and is separate from this patch.
