Libvirt will look at two fields in the a JSON 'error' reply. We will
pass 'desc' field through to the libvirt code - we treat it as an
opaque value. We will look at the string value in the 'class' field
to check for certain types of error - eg we strcmp against things like
MigrationExpected, DeviceNotActive, CommandNotFound, KVMMissingCap,
DeviceInUse, etc.  All other fields are ignored.

Daniel
