I don't think we want to expose ability to specify a fixed VNC port numbers in virt-manager. It will prove unreliable in practice, because even if you fix a particular guest on port 5905, any other guest doing dynamic VNC port assignment may choose this port before the hardcoded guest starts. It is not going to be easy for virt-manager to do validation of this port number either, since in the near future virt-manager may well be running remotely from the host. Finally, any one using virt-manager for management of guests never needs to know the port number, since virt-manager will always query it from the XML, so this is a very small niche usecase & I don't think it is worthwhile adding an extra step in the new VM wizard just for this capability.
