It can be consider it a poor man's Virt-manager. It is very small
and light. It can help a lot of people out. I really believe in this
feature. It can encompass a lot of the GUI features in most
front-ends. Think about it, the user might never have to enter
long file paths again with this feature. It makes life so much
easier for QEMU users.
