Reason I'm asking: the other VGA devices can be configured with "-device NAME", like any other user-configurable device. I want that for isa-vga, too. Of any device with fixed resources, there can be at most one. If you configure more than one, you get an error. Same as for inter-device resource clashes. Our reporting of resource clashes isn't exactly user friendly, and should be improved. no_user is strictly for devices that aren't user-configurable at all. I'll post a patch to bring isa-vga in line with the other VGA devices.
