Features like this are why I prefer using QEMU directly rather than an abstraction like libvirt on top of QEMU.
Graphical interfaces like virt-manager are nice at first, but I don't need an abstraction on top of multiple hypervisors to make them all look superficially the same, because they're not. Eventually the abstraction breaks down and gets in the way.
I need the ability to use the full capability of QEMU. I'll write a shell script to manage the complexity of the arguments. At least I don't have to deal with XML, validation, and struggling with enabling the options I want that are only supported by one specific emulator, which libvirt doesn't support, because it's not common to all of the backends.
