I don't know off hand of anything that would prevent it. Libvirt does
process events from running qemu VMs, but if there's no API users
connected to the daemon then I don't think libvirtd needs to be running;
it can handle restart and reconnecting to running VMs. That's
essentially the same behavior the session libvirtd instance uses which
auto shuts down after 30 seconds if there's no clients IIRC. danpb would
know best though, CCd
