Well, we don't even need this one, except for libvirt<=0.4.0. Having
a config directory all to ourselves for a single config file and only
in the legacy support case seems overkill :)
Yeah, I agree with you there. I was just thinking that if we'd need a
place to hold files in the future, we could use the same location. But
you make a good point that there's a difference between a config file
and a data file.

Well, we will for some of the processor scheduling stuff, but that
should probably be in /var/lib somewhere (although I guess the qemu
driver puts its configs in /etc).
