but enabling all experimental features inside KVM just because we want
one or two of them is very counter-intuitive. Imagine we'd introduce
emulation support for AVX. Suddenly allow-emulation (which I'd need for
Mac OS X 10.5) would enable AVX as well which I really don't want enabled.

Only if you were using "-cpu somethingThatHasAVX", though, no?

Yes. The same argument goes the other way around. I want to use AVX emulation, do "allow-emulation" and suddenly I get MONITOR/MWAIT emulation.
