not that i know of. even if you don't start rio, the machinary in gui-*/screen.c is used because devdraw is mounted. if it was done, it would be useful for developing a gizmo for exporting from a host os to Plan9 running inside QEMU. it would be easy then to make an exportfs-only version of drawterm, and make a version of cpu.c (remote side) that instead of mounting the authenticated fd on /mnt/term, it starts a pair of procs that relay between the fd and a pipe post to /srv. dt's ns can then be mounted anywhere. does the p9p cpu handle authentication?
