In my opinion if users try to circumvent the config of a libvirt network they might as well as provide a full network config themselves rather than trying to abuse libvirt into setting it up partially and then hacking up the rest. As of this patch. The documentation in the XML is misleading since it states that after that "all interfaces" will be handled. With the "bind-interface" option that isn't entirely true, only interfaces that share the subnetwork are handled [1]. In general, the use case you've described seems rather hackish as you even state for yourself and I don't think we should encourage this since for some other desired configurations it might not work and adding more and more workarounds just isn't a good idea. Said this, I'm not going to object if somebody else from the libvirt team thinks that it actually might be worthwhile, so I'm not going to explicitly NACK it. You need to persuade somebody else though. Peter [1] http://lists.thekelleys.org.uk/pipermail/dnsmasq-discuss/2012q4/006525.html
