yes that's would be a welcome addition, agreed.
Another thing is that if we had the fine grained access control system
I described in another thread last week, then we could create some kind
of "super admin" account which could issue API calls, ignoring the request
and thread limits, as a means to a recover a system, or abort a troublesome
migration job etc, while still controlling normal libvirt users.
