libvirt isn't just a wrapper around qemu-kvm, it drives half a dozen different virtualization systems, giving you the benefit of abstracting the details of the hypervisor from the management tools. So for that reason we don't support tweaking the qemu command line arbitrarily. However if there are particular features of qemu or KVM that you think we should support, please raise them.
- Higher resolution. My boss gave me two big monitors that can do
1920x1200, and all I can get for my guest machines is tiny little windows with hardly any room to work inside.
We'll have support for alternative graphics adapters in F12 libvirt which will allow this, at least better than now
- The ability to see what options qemu-kvm was invoked with. Even if
I can't change them, at least I can understand what I am getting. Right now, it's a black box to me.
Any VM you launched has its args logged in
/var/log/libvirt/qemu/$NAME.log
Come F12 you can also explicitly do conversions without starting a VM
