There are a few; the two most important concerns was that we wanted a
frontend that was relatively easy to port and the fact that getting code
into the kernel can be a lengthy process. Plus, because we don't have to;
recent kernel versions provide all the capabilities we need to implement
paravirtualized drivers in userspace and this simplifies life both for us
and the users.
