I didn't get you here? i mean there is a seperate virDomainSoundDefPtr, virDomainInputDefPtr, etc?

does it means the graphics tag is no more and is replaced with video tag? or video tag is added in addition to graphics tag?

in any case how about adding "multihead" and "3Daccel" to it and renaming ram to vram, something like this:

<video>

<model type='cirrus' vram='500' multihead='2' 3Daccel='yes'/>

</video>

Yes it per VM feature and generally exposed by any RDP server, so not specific to VirtualBox, but a general case. i think the earlier mail give details of it.

regarding the child element it is ok to have it as child element.
