I'm not sure that defaulting to --wait is the right thing to do though. I do kind of like the current behavior where it waits for un-started domains, but I don't think I'd want it to wait for un-created domains. I suspect that most people would probably prefer an error message if they tried to start virt-viewer for a domain that doesn't exist.
