I'm not sure what you're getting at. I don't think that right now
anything but a KVM guest can have a network type of "network", so it's
a reasonable key for the moment. However, as Kaitlin pointed out (and
I eluded to in the updated patch with a comment), I'm only claiming
support for "bridge" interfaces on Xen and "[virtual] network"
interfaces on KVM.
That call really needs an additional bit of information to know what
kind of domain it is to be 100% safe, but I didn't want to refactor it
all right now. Perhaps just adding a more specific type enum to the
network struct would be a good idea.
