Having two different consoles at the same time is easy. Guest graphics
in the SDL window, serial console on stdio. And now I need to add a
monitor. Means that I need to start using named pipes or TCP connections
or something. And I need to arrange the windows so that I can see qemu's
SDL window and the shell with my netcat (or whatever) gets the enter key
I hit. Yes, it's possible, but it's not nice.
I like Jamie's suggestion for macros.
