In the context of virtagent I would agree. The only complication there
being that a large part of the event-driven code (the async read/write
handlers for instance) is shared between virtagent and the host.

What exactly?  The dependencies in 16/16 give:

qemu-tool.o qemu-error.o qemu-sockets.c $(oslib-obj-y) $(trace-obj-y)
$(block-obj-y) $(qobject-obj-y) $(version-obj-y) qemu-timer-common.o
qemu-timer.o

Compared to other tools, only qemu-sockets.c is added (and timers); overall it is quite self contained and interfaces well with glib's GIOChannels, which provide qemu_set_fd_handler-equivalent functionality.

In addition, qemu iohandlers have a lot of unwritten assumptions, for example on Win32 they only work with sockets and not other kinds of file descriptors.
