I will do that. However keep in mind that this method only works for
single-player doors or a single-node configuration of a multiplayer game.

Since each call of the door starts its own QEMU instance and each instance is 
isolated from the other, multiplayer via FOSSIL won't work since each player
would reside in their own QEMU instance with their own FOSSIL / COM port set
up that simply does not know anything about the other player in the other QEMU 
system.

I'm still thinking about a way to work around this problem, but for now the
solution of mine does not support multiple users within he same
door.

You still can run  doors concurrently and games like Pimpwars, Gold Hunt 
and Super Plumber work very well.
