I think that many projects now want to control qemu programatically.
The monitor is not a good interface since it is text-based, hard to
parse, and liable to change without notice when new features are added.
However, I agree that having many similar constructs is

That would work for few platforms only!

However, I can change my mind if several projects insists to have a
