One thing which is very apparent is that sys admins using libvirt / virsh have a great deal of difficulty understanding "where the configuration files have gone" and how to edit them. This patch adds a "virsh edit <domain>" command which is basically the equivalent of: virsh dumpxml dom > /tmp/dom.xml $EDITOR /tmp/dom.xml && virsh define /tmp/dom.xml but with much more sanity checking. The editor is $EDITOR or vi, and it does the right thing if the user doesn't modify the file, or if another user edits the configuration at the same time.
