Package: qemu-system-x86
Version: 1:2.8+dfsg-1
Severity: normal

The previous SDL interface would automatically scale the video output to
match the window size.  The GTK interface has an off-by-default option
"Zoom To Fit" for that.  As far as I can tell, no command-line option
exists to turn that option on.  That makes it harder to quickly zoom a
freshly launched VM; instead of just hitting a maximize-window hotkey, I
also have to navigate through the menu to select "Zoom To Fit".

Given that VMs typically start out running in a much lower-resolution
video mode than the host (and VMs not running a full graphical
environment often stay that way), this seriously impacts the usability
of qemu-system.
