This seems a bit confusing to me at the first glance since we forbid
mux because not all frontends are ready to run outside main loop (and
now we have mon_iothread so it'll be odd too to run anything
non-monitor on that too...), rather than whether the backend can
dynamically switch its context.
I'm not sure, but do you mean you want to disable oob for backends
like spice or braille? I just noticed that it seems even legal if we
pipe a qmp monitor with a windows mouse...
I believe in all cases the commit message can be enhanced on
explaining "why" of this patch. :)
