What userspace tool is broken, and in what way ?
The major use case, as far as I know, is from software license managers which use this to determine how much to charge for software. I would have to ask around to know exactly which ones and how they operate.
Re-introducing the host passthrough to satisfy a broken tool is not very attractive because it reintroduces the security flaw that the QEMU change was fixing.
Sure, this is reasonable. I'm just trying to make it less painful for those that depend on the old behavior for some reason. =) Determined folks will probably just use <qemu:commandline> anyway.
