Inintially, I had that as reboot-timeout=[-1,65535], but since '0' is not the default [1], but a legitimate option (reboot immediately, which I guess I should've described in the commit message), I had a special value '-2' for the default and that's pretty awful without having virObject construct that due to virDomainDef initialization. With '-1' being the default, I had to come up with a system where zero(es) could be the default, but it would enable the use of '0' as an option as well. One version I've sent, the second one is having rebootTimeout as an int pointer and allocating the value when reboot-timeout is specified in the XML, which seems to me like an overkill for just one int.
