Okay, since you so nicely ask for it: I _want_ the command line option. I
do not like having to type the same thing into the monitor every time I
start QEmu.
But I expressly do _not_ ask to scrap the monitor interface, even if I
have no use for it.
However, I have no problem maintaining my own fork. Much like I will do
with VNC again, since I recently had to use QEmu via VNC and the artefacts
are just horrible.
Ciao,
