If any application did make use of this change which falls back to
lookup-by-name, then it would only ever work with OpenVZ and not
any of the other libvirt drivers, which isn't useful behaviour.

  Then the virLookupById description must be updated, I'm not against it,
but we need to be coherent.
Indeed, the docs need to be clarified.

  okay, what about
   * Try to find a domain based on the hypervisor ID number
   * Note that this won't work for inactive domains which have an ID of -1,
   * in that case a lookup based on the Name or UUId need to be done instead.
Ok.
In that case we may disable lookup-by-id in undefine subcommand.

and then revert that specific part of the patch, as attached. Also I would make a 'make rebuild' in the doc directory and push the doc update
