Generally for QEMU this will be less agility, unless I misunderstand
what is proposed)

Because presumably there will need to be spec releases then?

So
	new feature -> spec tree -> spec release -> qemu implementation -> qemu release

is surely longer that what we have now.

Whether there will be more agility for non qemu users will depend on
how often spec releases are cut.
