Ahem.  I said "#CP".  Nothing prevents the guest from issuing CP commands.
 But the data stream is not attached to the *virtual console*.  You
wouldn't get a typical CP logo; you'd get some other authentication
dialog.  Once authenticated logon proceeds (you would be running DSC), but
the data from the terminal session would move in and out of the virtual
ASCII console.

CP speaks only via diagnose 0x08 and the virtual console.

Chuckie made me say "vi" (ant nests, you know).  I mean, it goes without
saying that emacs is the One True Way.  ;-)  (No editor wars, please!!!)
