Oh, and btw: What was the reason why kvm paravirtualization doesn't use

There actually was proof of concept code to do just that (by Anthony Liguori). For Linux, I feel paravirt_ops is superior as we can extend it if something is missing. If VMI is adopted by non-Linux guests, we may support it as a quick way to add paravirt support for those guests.
