Sometimes when you change the configuration, this configuration change will only be available after a shutdown. Not to have to monitor when the vm shuts down, to start it again. It could be nice to have libvirt start it one time. Something like:
1. change the network interface of a running guest 2. at the prompt of the virt-manager "Some changes may require a guest shutdown to take effect" introduce check box 'Auto start vm upon next shutdown' 3. shutdown the guest 4. after the guest completed shutdown, libvirt is automatically starting it again.
This took me a while because at first I thought you were talking about the vm automatically starting on libvirt invocation (autostart), but instead it sounds like you want a function to allow the user upon making a change to initiate a hypervisor-level restart (i.e. destroy then start).
