Per my understanding:

1. To enable the serial console, it needs configuration on guest OS.

/        You must configure the virtualized operating system to output 
information to the virtual serial port.//
//        The serial port is called //|ttyS0|//on Linux or //|COM1|//on 
Windows./

     It need to modify the |/boot/grub/grub.conf| file on guest OS and 
reboot guest.

     So VM must have OS already installed, seems like it needs the guest 
to be running.

2. The serial console can be accessed with 'virsh console' or 'use 
|virt-manager| to display the virtual text console'.

      So the target of this work item is to add a 'web command line 
console' in kimchi UI to access the 'serial console'?
