This is actually the whole reason I wrote the patches that allow you to read and write memory and registers. I work on fuzzing, and fuzzing tools are a fragmented ecosystem of QEMU forks and patches that are outdated the moment they are published. Even PANDA from MIT LL which has great support struggled to keep their patches rebased and compatible with QEMU's actually-pretty-fast releases. Upstream or bust, it's really not that hard, it just takes a little persistence (and with LLMs learning git email is easy)!
