This is mostly a convenience factor as one could already use 'qemu-img info' to learn which bitmaps are broken and then 'qemu-img bitmap --remove' to nuke them before calling 'qemu-img convert --bitmaps', but it does have the advantage that the copied file is usable without extra efforts and the broken bitmap is not deleted from the source file.
