You probably mean this:

I have no personal opinion about the usefulness of the "biosdir" and
"biosfilename" options. Just looking at what they do, they might have
value also when not using OVMF (for example, the "VGA BIOS" that is
mentioned in the first commit). But if no-one is actually using these
options, then they should indeed be removed to simplify runqemu.
The problem just is to determine whether they are used :-/ As I don't
know, I'd prefer to keep them for now and remove them separately.
Regarding the approach that I proposed for the "ovmf" file(s): what's
your opinion about that? I was a bit worried that too much "magic" is
involved here (special keyword that expands to files and sets -vga), but
it is convenient and quite naturally supports additional use cases
(explicitly selecting files at non-standard locations, separate code and
variable files).
Regarding that last argument: in the current patch series, only the
combined ovmf.fd gets deployed and I argued that this is sufficient. To
test that supporting separate code and variables also works, I've
implemented that locally so that ovmf.fd ovmf_secboot.fd, ovmf_code.fd,
ovmf_secboot_code.fd and ovmf_vars.fd get deployed and runqemu supports
more than one "ovmf" parameter - this worked nicely. Full change below.
Now that I've implemented it, I wonder whether it would be worth
submitting that as part of rev2 of this patch series. Any opinions?
