I think I can probably manage to have some kind of script which can help ensure that my

still a little unclear on exactly how transient transient is. In my mind only the
persistent and defined objects would actually have their configuration saved in a file and
persist across reboots. It's surprising to me that so-called transient objects are
also saved in config files and can persist across reboots.
I should probably add that part of the confusion to me seems to be related to the fact
that I can't find a way to have virsh tell me if something is persistent or transient,
at least with respect to a network object. There are specific flags for domains but not
for other object types.
