Will we need to remember what events were enabled (in domain > status XML) or is it something we can read back from the kernel? We need to record it somewhere. I guess this raises the question of whether we should hide it in status XML, or persist the list of desired perf events in the real domain XML, so we can have the option of also having them enabled immediately at startup, without requiring separate API call.
