It is still useful to have libvirt in the subject as a person's inbox
may have mail from multiple different mailing lists, and this subject
prefix distinguishes them.
That will not work reliably as it's not enforced.
Looking at the virtualization-related mailing lists I'm subscribed
to, on qemu-devel the prefix is never used, and on both libvir-list
and virt-tools-list you can find patches using it as well as patches
not using it.
