Could you answer this bit? It sounds like from your other comment that
the above is true.
Yes, the migrate API requires a connection to both libvirtd daemons,
source and destination.
We're not going to *require* libvirtd to listen across the
network when
there's an existing mechanism, so it sounds like we'll have to fork this
part.
You can use the xen+ssh://hostname/ URI for the destination if you don't
want libvirtd to listen publically
