No, not this.
Putting correct lines in guest kernel command line I'm able to see what you
wrote, directly from virt-manager through
View --> Consoles --> Serial 0

I mean qemu monitor itself. The one that you activate inside qemu guest when
you run qemu or qemu-kvm and then press Ctrl+ Alt + 2
and you get something like

QEMU 0.11.0 monitor - type 'help' for more information
(qemu)

I understand that it would be risky to make things from the qemu monitor
itself bypassing libvirt, and so I asked, just to know

Thanks,
