I'm quite happy with KVM tool and hope they continue working on it. My only

Hey, right now our only source of crazy ideas is Ingo and I think he's
actually a pretty conservative guy when it comes to technology. Avi
has expressed some crazy ideas in the past but they require switching
away from C and that's not something we're interested in doing. ;-)
Just a couple random suggestions:
- Drop SDL/VNC. Make a proper Cairo GUI with a full blown GTK interface. Don't
rely on virt-manager for this. Not that I have anything against virt-manager
but there are many layers between you and the end GUI if you go that route.
- Sandbox the device model from day #1. The size of the Linux kernel interface
is pretty huge and as a hypervisor, it's the biggest place for improvement from
a security perspective. We're going to do sandboxing in QEMU, but it's going to
be difficult. It would be much easier for you given where you're at.
