I guess ultimately things like libcacard / virglrenderer are similar to other projects we use like libiscsi, ibnfs, etcs. A reason for splitting libcacard in particular is that it is used by more things that just QEMU, so from that POV there's no clear compelling reason for it to need to be hosted by QEMU. Probably the main reason for keeping it hosted by QEMU would be to have some sense of shared responsibility by the QEMU community in case Marc-Andre does not want to be a single point person owning it long term.
