This should make Rich's initial patch redundant. It also explicitly allows through any URI starting with / or http:// as back compat for Xen. Finally, it moves the remote driver to be the last one registered, and ensures the Xen & test drivers explicitly decline any URI with a hostname specified, so that they get passed onwards to the remote driver. I need this because when I move the QEMU driver across then I have an interesting scenario. Initially 'qemu:///session' has to be handled by the remote driver, but once inside the remote daemon that very same URI has to be handled by the QEMU driver. The QEMU driver can detect when its run inside the daemon, so by having the remote driver last I can handle this scenario quite easily.
