Heh, ok. What's the better approach for this? Should we adjust to use
something else like "guest" generically instead, or leave it as is, or ?
We should at least be consistent in what we use in virsh output. The
command names are all 'dom-' and the libvirt API is virDomain*, so
I've got a slight preference for domain, but guest works too.
