I'm perfectly fine with dropping it. btw, there are other features in qemu that seem to be academic exercises - *-user for example. What is it useful for? Most open source stuff is multiplatform, and serious commercial work needs something faster than tcg.*-user can be used by developers to make specific tests with TCG more easily and faster than with system emulation.
Maybe we need a unit test framework instead? Translating system calls is a lot of work for testing a jitter.
(of course, *-user exists, so why not use it)
I think someone also used it to run Wine on PPC.
That's dead now. And in any case, it would be too slow for production use of contemporary software.
