I don't think this will work out to identify emulators in a sensible way
(e.g. their feature set).

Chuck has done one Emulator in Go and now he is working on QEMU.

I have done one desktop emulator (in Java), and then one
feature-incompatible Web emulator in JavaScript (which I later ported to
Webassembly/AssemblyScript). And last but not least I also maintain a
fork of pdewacht's emulator (adding 16 color support, host filesystem,
rtc, and drag&drop for PCLink).

At least my 3 emulators have different feature sets, so I could not
think of any good reason why they should get identified the same way.

Micahel
