Fine for me, too - if we all feel confident enough already for that. The "vlan=..." parameter of "-net" has been declared as deprecated since QEMU v2.9, so unless somebody sees an urgent need to still keep it, I can add another patch to this series to remove it ("-net" will then only work with the default hub #0).
