You're not going to make coherent arguments without reading that actual patch we're discussing.

But people keep assuming it, which is one reason virtio_ccw switched from passive lguest-style config to active. Only lguest and the old kvm virtio use it, and lguest can change. An emergency output is a reasonable idea, and this is a reasonable implementation. The question is practical: will it be used? Because we don't implement reasonable ideas which aren't going to be used.
