That would mean that apps cannot simply configure a guest volume
without first checking to find out what type of pool it is, and
then specifying this extra arg for iSCSI. IMHO the value of the
<volume> XML is that you don't have to know anything about the
pool to be able to configure it - we're completely decoupled.
