Like I mentioned in v2 of this patch, "define" doesn't start anything without
--auto added to the cmdline. Still, it feels like the function is doing
a tiny bit more than it should IMO. You also noted that you're preparing for when we
start defining mdevs, I'd say let's leave 'persist' out until we actually
introduce support for persisting mdevs.

The rest of the patch looks good to me.

Regards,
Erik
