You mentioned "watchdog timer, sensors and power control" but what exactly should they expose? Do you want to expose host sensors - the challenge is that they don't reflect the hardware that the virtual machine sees? Or do you want to have synthetic sensors - which virtual sensors are useful to have? Is the IPMI watchdog useful, QEMU already supports the i6300esb PCI watchdog (see qemu -watchdog option documentation)? Some use cases that illustrate how the guest is going to use IPMI would be interesting and could help guide the discussion.
