i did look into that a bit, though it is a little tricky because it's got the
qemu-doc.texi and qemu-options.texi (texinfo?) layer of abstraction. for the
full details:

the generated manpage has several lines longer than 80 characters describing
commandline arguments, such as:
-smbios
type=1[,manufacturer=str][,product=str][,version=str][,serial=str][,uuid=uuid][,sku=str][,family=str]
Specify SMBIOS type 1 fields
...
-net
nic[,vlan=n][,macaddr=mac][,model=type][,name=name][,addr=addr][,vectors=v]
and so on...
i don't know if there is a way to more succinctly describe those options that
gets all the details... or an easy way to generate the manpage to fix the
formatting issues with those long lines.
live well,
