You will get all important information in one place. Frankly, this one looks at the edge of the scope of virsh list. I mean, I view virsh as a simple CLI utility that you can build your own scripts on the top of. Also, you want 5 flags. Cool. But tomorrow somebody else wants another 5 (title, description, has given device, etc.). The possibilities are endless. I suggest writing your own management application on the top of libvirt.
