What sense would it make in this case? There is only one option when we're
running virtlogd and that is no label. If they supply relabel='yes', it won't
work with virtlogd unless they change it back to 'no'. So, you've got an option
the functionality of which depends on a service running, which is by default on
by the way.

Since I don't want to be someone who just criticizes other people's ideas
without adding anything to the discussion, I was thinking about re-using the
qemu config parameter stdioLogD. But that solution is also wrong as it turned
out. I haven't come up with anything better yet, though. So, having something in
the status XML seems like a plausible approach to me.
