Well, you can get the emulator binary from /domainCapabilities/path, but that's
not what you should be using for any support-related decisions.

I guess there is no easy way to do that, feel free to create a BZ that we add it
to domcapabilities (or just capabilities maybe) and assign it to me so that we
don't lose track of it.  I'll post a patch for it then, it will be trivial, the
only thing we need is design decision about how to name it and where to put it.

HTH,
