Personally I'd rather -nographic didn't take over stdio either: it should just disable graphics, and if you want serial on your stdio you can say "-serial stdio"; it's a bit non-orthogonal for an option which is about how we handle video output to have a non-overridable side-effect of redirecting the serial port. (Also the "-nographic" running of serial over stdio doesn't let you kill qemu with ^C, the way "-serial stdio" does, which is just annoyingly inconsistent...) -- PMM
