Sure, will add these 2.

That is a goal. Currently I do it with:
vng --qemu-opts="-nic tap,id=nd0,ifname=xtap0,model=virtio-net-pci,script=no,downscript=no,mac=52:54:00:12:34:57 -nic tap,id=nd1,ifname=xtap1,model=virtio-net-pci,script=no,downscript=no,mac=52:54:00:12:34:58"

and setting loop manually with tc-matchall-mirred

Implementing virtio loop instantiation in vng is on the todo list for
this.
