The intro comments to 'virObjectEventStateRegisterID()' need to be
adjusted to remove '@name' and '@id'.

Same for 'virObjectEventCallbackLookup()' - sadly missed in patch 7, but
I was looking for @name and @id now...

Leaving only 'virObjectEventNew()' as the lone API that cares about 'id'
and 'name', but doesn't utilize.  Should that be noted somewhere?  Since
'meta.name' and 'meta.id' aren't used anywhere, do they even need to be
saved...  Would save an alloc/free for name.

Should the existing 'testDomainCreateXMLMixed()' be kept as is?  And
then add a 'testDomainDefineXMLMixed()'?  At the very least the name
should probably be changed since other test functions distinguish Define
& Create in their names.


ACK in general though.
