Thinking again, I'm not too comfortable about having
both system and session on the same namespace, as when
there is an inevitable naming clash, it is tedious to
resolve (no human likes using UUIDs).

How about allowing:

   ssh user@qemu:system/machineName
   ssh user@qemu:session/machineName

as unambiguous options, while leaving

   ssh user@qemu/machineName

as the simplified "(mostly) do the right thing" option
