[virt-tools-list] [PATCH 1/2] error: new helper function to embed customized widget into dialog

I am OK with the general idea of your patches.

Two things that I missed when comparing with virt-viewer similar feature:

* If the virt-viewer window has the current focus and I insert a USB 
device, it will be automatically redirected to the guest. I was not able 
to reproduce this same test case with virt-manager console viewer. I 
needed to manually go to the menu and select which USB device to 
redirect. This can be because of some configuration with my test 
environment, but I just would like to confirm if this feature is not there.
* In virt-viewer, if the VM has no Spice Redirected USB device 
configured, the menu will not be activated. In your implementation, the 
menu will be active, but if I try to select a USB device for 
redirection, I'll get an error.

By the way, I was able to use the USB redirection without being root.

Some more comments below.

Although this is true for the current use of this function, this is not 
a restriction. So I would just remove this comment.

It seems that show_info is not being used anywhere else. So, instead of 
creating two very similar functions, why not changing the original 
show_info?
