But I do question whether we need to support 64-bit guests on 32-bit hosts at all. Retaining 32-bit on 32-bit allows arm32 to emulate i686, which I suspect, but have no proof, is the limit of what users actually want.

I presume you implicitly restrict that to user emulation, right?

WRT i686, if your example is "i686 useremu on non-x86 embedde router"
then any 32-bit host is potentially interested, not only arm32.

I remember being able to run armhf binaries on armel hosts (and vice
versa) was useful 7 years ago. Today I have no clue, we could poll the community and some distributions.
