Ok, that's not neccessarily a problem. The set of profiles will be
extensible in the normal manner by adding new XML files. So we can
have some profiles that are generic best practice for the guest +
hypervisor combination. Those can be used as a starting point for
any person/app who wishes to define further profiles that taken into
account specific guest applications.
