While we're on the subject, what's everyone's thoughts on exporting 
domain information within sysfs in a /proc/<pid> style (perhaps 
/sys/xen/<domid>) instead of exposing the getdomaininfo hypercall to 
userspace?  While Linux-centric, it provides a pretty clean way to make 
sure that we can always query settable information.
