Hi, Comments are always welcome, I guess, but since there is someone with interest to implement config files, maybe constructive comments are better :p
I don't dislike the use of xml nor I think is bloat. This subject as been discuted in the list, http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2006-01/msg00030.html , xml format has already been proposed, http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2005-08/msg00034.html , promptly followed by key/value pair proposal... Maybe the best is writing a tool like vqemu, http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2006-01/msg00063.html that can be easily updated to support the different file formats and see what people prefer...

Oh yes! *claps his hands* XML! *gets shiny eyes* We absolutely have not enough bloat in QEmu! You could integrate libxml2. Or even better, write yet-another XML parser! And encodings! XML has automatic encodings! We got to have them. Yes, encodings. It is international! And you can put blobs into an XML! Isn't that a great feature we could use? The best of all, it's a Best Practice! Plus, you can write a DTD for it and _validate_ it! Or even an _XML Schema_! ... You get the idea.
