Do someone know if virgil3d is supported by libvirt?

In case it is not - does not matter. Can pass raw qemu commands through libvirt xml so we will be able to test it anyway.

This is not the same, especially since I do not want to test it but instead use it daily with virt-manager.

yep exactly. i relied heavily on virt-manager then i dived deep into qemu-img / virsh stuff. the library is amazing far more powerful than the virt-manager. maybe if i learn some python i can start chipping it.
