Really?  This seems exceedingly complicated to me.

Redirecting the kernel output to serial and logging is a considerably better
solution.
To his specific problem, yes.

But this probably don't work so well on some OSes that are less serial friendly.
Also, there are valid use cases in which one may want, for example, to pause
fast if some graphical event happens, which is an extension of what he mentioned
initially.

Then type "stop" in the monitor and hit enter when you need to. Or, write a simple VNC client using gtk-vnc that can have any sort of crazy key sequences you want.
