Got all this, thanks.
Finally the 'default devices' patch series ('must have' IMHO):
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/39180/ (patch 1/10)
Without that one using -device and -readconfig becomes much harder.
This series doesn't get along with the QMP monitor support that's been
added recently. That's because there is now a set of monitor flags and
-monitor takes more than a character device as an argument.
Honestly, I don't really like multiplexing the -monitor option to
support qmp. I think I would have a proper -qmp option at the top
level. That would integrate much more nicely too with this default
devices series. Luiz, what do you think?
