Is there any work going on now to add config file support?

As a random end-user, I really like being able to run qemu without a config 
file, configuring it entirely on the command line.  I'd be highly 
disappointed if qemu turned into another Wine.

Except that I never do. Instead, I write a trivial shell script since I can never remember the command line options, much less type them in consistently.

What's the difference between a shell script to cover qemu and a #!/bin/qemu config file? Seems to me they both address roughly the same issues with roughly the same considerations. Am I missing any significant functionality differences?
