It was boring so I thought how to solve that problem. I was not able to find sensible solution. So I decided to write something. Here it is. If you find it useful could we add this to Xen 4.4? I know that now it could be too late but I think that it is nice feature and it does not touch core stuff so it should not break anything important. Daniel
