Yup!

Thats only because I haven't added 2 possible getters of this object.
We don't need them right now but they could be added when needed
later. I have discussed this with Daniel and he and I both think this
'feature' deserves a separate class.

? Its the other way around: We ignore other nodes and create objects
for 'feature' nodes.

I don't think we need separate classes for both. They both represent
the same concept, just that libvirt capabilties xml is a bit
inconsistent AFAICT.

According to RNG, it is mandatory.

True and since we'll need to use g_object_new() instead in that
helper, we can just ditch all these new private headers.
