Last time I tried to remove -usbdevice, there was some concerns that -usbdevice braille might still be useful for some people, see the thread that started here: https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2018-01/msg00651.html (and Gerd's summary here: https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2018-01/msg01520.html ) So we might need a new "sugared" option like "-braille" instead before we can fully remove -usbdevice? ... or we just keep -usbdevice as a bittersweet remainder?
