We are not going to break compatibility by changing the meaning of none here.
passthrough GPUs should already be handled by overriding vga_type in xenopsd. how did you set up passthrough in xapi?

What is the actual meaning of vga=none ? I can't find none as a "video card" kind (in xenops types).
Xen Orchestra consider disabling VGA as "use Cirrus".
I think the user is looking for a equivalent of vga = "none" of xl, which is basically skip adding a emulated VGA device in the guest (which is not the same as using QEMU stdvga, no vga would lead to no display of course).
That could help forcing a passed-through GPU being the primary one (by being the only one).

There's more context in the related issue: xcp-ng/xcp#744

When VGA is turned off in XO or manually set up as vga=none, the -device VGA is replaced with -device cirrus-vga.
This is a fix for qemu-wrapper that omits any VGA device when vga=none.
