I think we're confusing the notion of what a passive domain is

could very easily look at having an rdbms store the info about the
passive domain, hand that down to the dom0 via rpc, and directly call
the createLinux call. To me, that's still a passive domain, even though
it's configs haven't touched disk yet.
Yup, to me they are different level.
I guess I'm also struggling to understand why you'd toss this
into
xenstore... it just seems this is a higher level concept that needs to
be tracked in too specific a way by management systems.
The reason it would be useful to save this in xenstore is to garantee
the same vision between different application managing that node (for example
a remote supervision tool and a local launcher used by the user). Otherwise
just keeping this information in libvirt own memory would be just fine,
I'm still unsure the need to synchronize is really there.
