  yes, but it assumes all logging should go to stderr, which is viable
sometimes but not always, the logfile opens the possibility to make really
verbose debugging without cluttering what the user see normally (i.e. 
if stderr is not redirected), and if I understand well the goal is to actually
increase debugging in the future. With nice GUI tools being developped
on top of libvirt, I expect virsh role to gradually move more and more 
to debugging use cases (without neglecting the CLI aspect though).
