So for this one I'm not checking the length, which argues it wouldn't
be subject to the added length new data rule and I'd have to use a new
guid for new information.  However, I could also see situations where
you would check the length and thus would have the ability to add
fields (either at the beginning or the end).

I think this paragraph explains it nicely and a slightly expanded comment with this information would be enough.

Thanks,

Whatever we decide should probably be documented in both the OVMF
patches and the Qemu patches.

OK, I can add a comment about my use case and you can add one
documenting your length based use case.
