If I specify a 'vm' it's not obvious to me whether I'd get NICs and

VM would not get those (it's global statistics), but the size could balloon
if you specify no target at all.
Adding a syntax for 'all' into the vcpus list would fix that?
I don't like having special syntax. The current QAPI just doesn't filter
what is not in the arguments.
Is there a object that represents the set of all vcpus?
No.
Yes, those would have different providers. But a single target can support
multiple providers.
Is that just for different implementations - kvm/hcf/tcg etc or do you
envisage multiple providers on an object in a running VM?
I think multiple providers are possible for a single object, for example
a device could expose both PCI (how many MSIs, etc.) and SCSI (how many
commands sent/succeeded/failed) statistics.
