I'm not aware of anyone currently working on this feature.

Well it seems the sf.net LXC tools support a 'lxc.caps.drop'
flag to list caps that should be removed. Since we'd like to
have equivalent or greater features in libvirt, it seems that
it would be in scope to add such a config option to libvirt
XML. So if you'd like to work on it feel free to make a
proposal for XML config & patch.

Regards,
Daniel
