Or perhaps:

-net tap,vlan=off,id=1234 -net nic,model=virtio,vlan=off,id=1234


That would only allow one such pair per VM.

I'm guessing that's what id= is for.

Why not keeping all the existing infrastructure, just locking a vlan
against becoming more than a point-to-point link once some conflicting
optimization was applied? That should be easy to implement and to
explain to the user.

I still haven't seen a real life usecase for >2 terminals on a vlan.
