Currently if cmd->skipChecks is set (done only from completers) some basic checks are skipped because we're working over partially parsed command. See a26ff63ae4 for more detailed explanation. Anyway, the referenced commit was too aggressive in disabling checks and effectively returned success even in clear case of failure. For instance:
# domif-getlink --interface <TAB><TAB> causes virshDomainInterfaceCompleter() to be called, which calls virshDomainGetXML() which eventually calls vshCommandOptStringReq(.., name = "domain"); The --domain argument is required for the command and if not present -1 should be returned to tell the caller the argument was not found. Well, zero is returned meaning the argument was not found but it's not required either.
