I agree with you that it would be eventually interesting to make this optional, although it should be by default in kiosk mode. So perhaps a different argument --kiosk-quit-on-disconnect?

--reconnect is only implemented in virt-viewer, we may want to use kiosk mode with remote-viewer too.

Btw, how does libvirt handle libvirt disconnections?
