Package: qemu
Version: 0.6.1+20050407-1
Severity: wishlist

if i use the "-cdrom /dev/cdrom" and i select eject media from within the qemu
guest OS, i would like the disc to be ejected from the physical machine.
also, if i insert a new disc, i would like the guest OS to be aware that
a new disc was inserted.

i know i can use the "-monitor stdio" command-line option and use the
"eject /dev/cdrom" command to unmount a disc within the guest OS.  also,
i can use "change cdrom /dev/cdrom" to mount a new disc.  however, this
isn't very apparent to novice/standard users.  implementation  would
be a matter of automating these operations based using "eject /dev/cdrom"
and listening to cues on the host OS.
