Considering the messiness this serieas adds to QEMU, I do wonder how
much of win this avoidance really is. If you have permissions to chroot,
you generally have permissions to set binfmt_misc too. Alternatively
these kind of exec manipulations are already done by external tools like
proot and scratchbox.

However if you are ready to stay around to maintain it, and nobody else
objects the code, I can merge it.
