I assume it works ok with -sandbox on,spawn=allow ?

I'd suggest making it a generic strv_from_strList() function. Take const as
argument too.

We could use a QAPI_LIST_LENGTH() in qapi/util.h

const args, and documentation could help.

Can this be handled more gracefully instead?

g_strfreev the argv and report an error?
