Oh, I should mention that this implementation is tested and working with the
updated libvirt, ruby-libvirt, and kvm packages in the ovirt.org repository.
The patches for all 3 have been submitted upstream, but I'm still waiting on
feedback on all of them.  In the meantime, the packages in ovirt.org will work.
