There's plenty of prior art for using config files on unix/linux systems. I'm not saying we should remove all commandline options. However qemu is growing sufficiently many user-adjustable knobs that manipulating them all solely via the commandline gets unwieldy. IMHO there's a limit to how much information can/should be usefully expressed on the commandline, and qemu is approaching that limit.
