I tried to add it, but then the deprecation message is always shown. I think this happens because of the default CD-ROM drive is create in vl.c with CDROM_OPTS (that is defined to "media=cdrom"). So no clue how to properly print a deprecation option for "media" here right now (and it should likely be in a separate patch if there is a solution). Thomas
