We cannot guarentee whether the active hotplugging will update the persistent config or not, but if possible it should. Currenty XenD appears to update the config from what I see, though haven't tested it for real yet Qemu doesn't update the persistent config, so should we add this? Or woutld it be better to add a new set of functions that have a flags argument like VIRT_PERSIST (I think you suggested somehting like this once) and leave the behaviour for attacheDevice/detachDevice undefined.
The current behaviour of attachDevice/detachDevice is a bit of a nightmare for tools like virt-manager since it's the behaviour is by no means hypervisor independent. -- Guido
