When developing this feature, I did the same search and came up
empty-handed.  This does need to be done.  Is anyone working on it?

I was able to test this by using a qemu wrapper script:

   #!/bin/bash
   exec /usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 -balloon virtio "$@"

and by using the following emulator tag domain xml file:

   <emulator>/home/aglitke/images/qemu-wrapper.sh</emulator>
