This is almost always a bad idea IMHO.
Disagreed, adding a field at the end probably won't break most
scripts
using sed/awk to extract data, but showing stopped machines will.
But we can add a 'virsh show' command doing a complete listing, then
it's just a matter of rerouting a few synapses, easier done than changing
running code ;-)
virsh show doesn't help at all, as it's not any easier to remember than
'--all'. The whole problem is that it's non-obvious (and completely
different to xm) that the list doesn't include non-running domains.
