Agreed. Bolting point-point requirements onto the vlan API seem like a really 
bad idea.

I'm not so sure about that. I don't believe kvm is representative of qemu as a 
whole. My guess is your typical kvm user cares more about netwroking 
performance then they do about (for example) requiring root privileges to 
instantiate virtual machines.

That said, I guess vlan functionality can be punted to something like vde.
