Mmmm, it looks to me like you want to reinvent the paravirtualization
interface... If a guest is paravirtualized, we don't use a
qemu/stubdomain/whatever, and the guest indeed basically just talks with
a dom0 kernel thread, or anything looking like that (tasklet, etc.).
If the guest is not paravirtualized, then we have to emulate virtual
devices, and that we clearly don't want to do it in dom0 kernel space :)
Even running it as root in dom0 is already frowned upon.
