NACK.  I agree with danpb that this is something that already fits quite 
nicely into virDomainUpdateDevice, without needing specialized API 
(however, we can still add a specialized virsh command that makes it 
easier to wrap virDomainUpdateDevice without making the user have to 
deal with quite as much xml).
