THis looks very much like it is tending towards re-inventing most of the
existing snapshot and/or managed save functionality.

This is slightly more palatable. IMHO we do want some kind of
'managed core dump' functionality to associate these APIs with,
since we can't change the semantics of the existing virDOmainCoreDump
API. ie we want something like

   virDomainManagedCoreDump(virDomainPtr dom, int flags);

and now libvirt will pick the core dump filename, probably based on
date.
