Thanks for the suggestion.  I think it would be better to have a
general mechanism for setting defaults for domains, rather than
introducing this piecemeal.

Perhaps xl should read /etc/xen/xl-domain-defaults.conf when creating
new domains (and copy the information into the userdata with the main
configuration) ?

Thanks,
Ian.

File with default values for all domUs applied if not present in single domU
conf would be perfect.
Could be implemented in xen 4.2 please?
