On the user space issue, I guess that's not completely true when it
comes to networking? You have to be using the TUN/TAP driver.
I wonder if it would be of interest to embed a SOCKS proxy or something
similar in QEMU. Then you could truly get by without having to use any
special drivers in the host environment, since QEMU would use the
sockets API for network communication instead of driver. You would have
configuration to do within the image to make the networking apps use
SOCKS though. It's a trade-off, but in those situations where you don't
admin your own box, it could be the only option.
