On one side it hides configuration errors - in a way that makes them hard to spot. On the other side there is - at least one issue with (maybe some older versions) virt-manager. - Virt-manager sets VRAM directly, not using the default memory setting - but uses too small values for libxl. Worse, those versions do not seem - to allow to change VRAM from the GUI. So switching the video type to - VGA makes the guest fail to start until one manually adapts the VRAM - size in the XML definition. - With this change this would not happen but VRAM will be bigger than - the GUI says. This would not be that different from current Cirrus - behaviour. Only that in that case qemu seems to ignore the provided - size. + This is a bit debatable.
