Opps, that was from a work-in-progress version of the patch.

The 'virDomainLxcEnterNamespace' API is special in that it is rnu
purely client-side, not in the daemon. It is pretty much just a
dumb wrapper around 'setns()' and 'readdir(/proc/self/ns)' to avoid
apps having to know about those low level impl details.

Same note as above - the driver API isn't used for this code since
it is client side.

Indeed, it would have taken me ages to get this right without copying
from libvirt-qemu :-)
