That is only the case for 1) very new libvirt (0.10.0+) and 2)
<interface type='network'>. It's purpose is to allow specifying, for
example, both an openvswitch interfaceid and an 802.11Qbh profileid at
the same time (for cases when the guest doesn't know whether the network
it connects to will be openvswitch or 802.1Qbh, and wants to specify the
appropriate setting for both possibilities).
I picked a bad example (Open vSwitch also uses profileid). Think instead
of the case where you didn't know if the host was going to be
openvswitch (which uses interfaceid) or 802.1Qbg (which uses instanceid).
