Yes, it can affect the reset behavior of Qemu.

It seems your opinion is the same as Parav Pandit's, both hope this feature can be more generic. 
If that's the case, its role and scope of influence will become quite large, and I'm not sure if that's appropriate.
I will try to modify the code to improve the level of this feature, if I can make it work, I will send a new series of patch.
And during this period, I am still looking forward to receiving more suggestions and guidance from everyone. Thank you!
