Yes, it would be good to have an implementation. I mentioned this
device in my FOSDEM 22 talk about what's coming in VIRTIO 1.2:

There are QEMU patches in development by Shreyansh Chouhan although
that doesn't rule out a rust-vmm crate.

Want to pick one device and write a project description for it?

Thanks for posting that! Can you add links to the -d cpu, gdbstub, and
hmp/qmp register code? The idea is a little fuzzy in my mind, maybe
you could include a sketch of the API to give readers an idea of what
the project should deliver?
