Yes, I agree. Perhaps not all of them however; probably not accel= and probably not kvm_type too. In fact, what I don't like about this patch is that it doesn't really feel "right" to put it in -machine. On the other hand we definitely do not want to split it further to -accel. Oh well, it seems like designing the right command-line interface is the hardest part of doing QEMU.
