Indeed, order matters should we go the route of multiple consoles. http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Remote-Serial-Console-HOWTO/configure-kernel.html "When multiple consoles are listed output is sent to all consoles and input is taken from the last listed console. The last console is the one Linux uses as the /dev/console device." However, I'd recommend we mimic the existing behavior used for xen, and only provide a single console= key/value pair.
