But this possibly points to another reason to do so. I'm working on an upstream libvirt re-architecture that will make it into its own daemon. In fact libvirtd will be split into many smaller daemons each specific responsibilities. This won't let us use systemd activation though. Libvirtd can't use activation right now because it needs to be able to auto-start VMs and networks at system boot up. This functionality pre-dates systemd so is handled by libvirtd itself. Eventually it would be ideal if libvirtd can dynamically create systemd units for its resources which need start-on-boot functionality, but that's some significant work to do still.
