Yes.

Kicked discussion on spice-devel list.

That would probably best done via libosinfo (because for guests without
virtio-vga guest drivers we better don't do the switch).  Which should be
picked up by other distros and projects too.

Why?  The xorg modesetting driver works just fine with virtio-vga.
