Right I am not advocating changing the defaults, all I suggest is we
make it an option to disable some of the devices. There are people
running on smaller systems or dedicated systems where they know exactly
which 7 devices they need and nothing more. They would be quite happy to
be able to strip down QEMU to the minimum they need.
