My opinion is that vhost-net should be in its own group, due to extra possible security implications and because, just like with /dev/kvm, this rules file does not belong to qemu[-kvm] package, since qemu is not only user of these devices. I don't, however, just refuse to fix this bug - I see the need to do something like that, and hopefully will address this in the near future.
