Unfortunately, virsh doesn't know what device (i.e., its alias) is going to be removed based on the XML passed by a user. I was thinking about adding a new public API which would accept a device XML and return the matching full device XML from domain definition to help virsh with this task, but I was too lazy^Wbusy.
