The benefit of bulk calls is clear. Can you explain about the benefit of using RPC instead of vdsm's API.py layer? (I can think of one or two, but it's less clear-cut).

I am baffled as well. Yeela, could you add to this patch a functional test, which expects a running Vdsm, and uses vdsm.jsonrpcvdscli to connect to it and run a simple getCaps verb?
