'virsh attach-disk --persistent' is supposed to be able to modify an
inactive domain. If it doesn't do so for qemu, then that's because no
one has yet implemented it correctly, which means libvirt has a bug that
needs to be patched. For example, see:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=669549
about 'virsh setmem --config' not working for qemu.
for attach-disk
--persistent.
