I've been generally promoting the idea that firmware logs should be captured by libvirt by default, and exposed to the user similarly to QEMU error messages / error logs... Some rate limiting and/or log rotation would be necessary, so that guest code cannot flood the host system with infinite logs, but that wouldn't prevent saving error messages from non-malicious firmware.
