	This makes my head hurt a bit, I think I prefer the libvirt:// even if
it means encoding URIs in URIs.

	i.e. I would expect to connect to e.g. qemud:// and xend:// URIs to
using the same protocol whether the URI is local or remote.

	I don't know, it's not something I really care about ... but I'd find
it strange if qemud+tls://foo.bar.com/system means "access
qemud:///system via a libvirt proxy" ...

	I'm pretty sure I've seen old man DV flame people to kingdom come and
back about abusing URIs so, I guess if DV is happy, it can't be too
bad :-))
