I'd feel more comfortable if this patch also touched
qapi/block-core.json to mention the change in policy on
BlockdevOptionsBase.

Will do.

Also, should 'node-name' be mandatory when
omitting 'id'?

Seems good to me. Not specifying a node-name doesn't make a whole lot of sense, except for when you really badly want qemu to create useless structures in memory.
