RE: [Xen-users] Display/Console for HVM domUs

[jdsw <jdsw2002@xxxxxxxxx>]

I do not agree with that. In virtualized worldit is convenient to have access to the . console window. (similar to paravirtualized VM or VNC). 
Also, people are used to killing windows and expecting that the process goes away, it is a big leap to think  that the whole machine is shutdown/destroyed. Also, quite inconsistent from VNC behavior. One has to think... is this VNC window I am closing or SDL window ?

There must be some  reason for not doing (being able to do this). Would like to understand it better
Thanks

Seeing as there's (apparently) no way to resurrect the console window,
it's probably not such a good idea to close it in the first place...
