What's more, it seems like the easiest way, given the
way QEMU currently works, to have an advanced GUI that can manage
multiple instances of QEMU (using tabs or something like that).
I'm working on something like that (though I stole the idea from Q, the Mac OS X
Cocoa GUI for qemu). The way it works, one master qemu process creates the
actual window (with full GUI and etc), as well as a VM for one guest. In order
to handle multiple guests, subprocesses are spawned (so one VM per process) but
they display to the GUI of the master process. (Actually, this is implemented
using GtkSocket and GtkPlug.) Currently you'll only be able to see one guest
at a time (though you can switch among them at any time), but I plan on adding
support for using multiple windows later (all windows would be owned and
controlled by
the same master process).
