I really think we should *not* encourage use of this binding, on the basis
that we really don't want people hooking into the RPC system like this. It
makes them less future proof and locks them out of using any of the drivers
that are outside libvirtd, unless they want to tunnel access to them via
libvirtd which is just stupid.
