It depends on what you are trying to do. If you have a persistent domain
XML that you want to keep, define it once with defineXML and later get
access to it with conn.lookupByName() or friends, create(), and finally
destroy() it.
Anyway, dom.destroy() makes the dom object useless as the name may
suggest ;-)
