Can you elaborate on this part, as it feels a bit odd to me.

Currently -display accepts vnc or spice or sdl or gtk or none

Each of these -display options corresponds to a different <graphics type=XXX/>
element in libvirt XML, except 'none' which corresponds to no <graphics> at
all.

We already allow multiple <graphics> elements to turn on say both SPICE and
VNC at once.

So why would we want to treat egl-headless differently as an attribute under
the SPICE graphics, as opposed to just having  <graphics type=egl-headless>
as a thing in its own right.


Regards,
Daniel
