Yes, that was my first try, until I had to realize that get_typed_instance() is that special to our providers as Dan describes below ;). So I had to move it to libxkutil.
No, the make_ref behavior is something we need to do in a special way that others won't. Putting the (Xen_|KVM_) switch into std_association would pollute libcmpiutil with libvirt-cim behavior.
