Up to now users have to give a full XML description on input when
device-detaching. If they omited something it lead to unclear
error messages (like generated MAC wasn't found, etc.).
With this patch users can specify only those information which
specify one device sufficiently precise. Remaining information is
completed from domain.

Not forgotten, but not quite yet to the top of my queue, either :(  I
guess having too many patches to review is a good sign that there is a
lot of contribution going on.

Are there any xml library functions that can already do this without you
rewriting it from scratch?
No, there are not. I consulted this issue with Daniel Veillard.

My quick glance of just the documentation says that this looks like a
nice helper, but I haven't reviewed it in depth.
