Public bug reported:
The SDL interface automatically scales the video output to
match the window size. The GTK3 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.
(Observed in QEMU 2.8)
