It should be easy to backport the patch for older virt-viewer.

But to get the "complete" experience, I would recommend you use the
upcoming virt-viewer. Without it, you won't have the QMP monitor
handling, VTE serial console, etc..

I am not sure, I think it make sense to require the upcoming
virt-viewer instead.

After all, if you use a bleeding edge qemu, you can use bleeding edge
virt-viewer, no?
