It's only just gone into trunk. We're planning to do a
blog post/etc to advertise the new functionality to users
at around the time we do the next QEMU release that includes it.

Nope, pretty much not. Almost all the QEMU developers use
Linux -- the BSDs and Windows hosts are also not very well
represented in the QEMU dev community.
I have a Mac, but I only really use it for doing build tests,
so we at least keep the OSX support from bitrotting entirely.
More developers working on and with the OSX parts of the QEMU
code would certainly be welcome.
