Indeed; file.file.driver=file,file.file.filename=file.qcow2 is required 
for it to work, rather than fail with
qemu-nbd: Failed to blk_new_open 
'driver=raw,offset=1m,size=100m,file.driver=qcow2,file.backing.driver=file,file.backing.filename=file4': 
A block device must be specified for "file"

I'll repost with the bug-fix as a separate commit (and it's a shame that 
we've gone nearly a year with no one noticing the typo in the original).
