Discussion petered out with my message[*]:

    I chose on/off to stay consistent with how qdev shows bool
    properties (print_bit() in qdev-properties.c).  May be misguided.
    Like you, I'm having difficulties coming up with a better version
    that is still consise.
    
    But: should "info qtree" show such device state?  It's about
    configuration of the device tree, isn't it?  Connection status is
    useful to know, but it's not device configuration.  Other
    print_dev() methods may cross that line, too.  For instance,
    usb_bus_dev_print() prints attached, which looks suspicious (commit
    66a6593a).

Should info qtree continue to show this information?  If yes, care to
suggest a better format?
