That's pretty much what we do in 'manager' -- but what needs to happen in 
'driver' is to (re)create the domain in libvirt on the destination host, 
re-attach volumes, floating IPs, etc. Essentially, everything 'spawn' is 
doing today, just without creating the new instance file. Of course, we 
don't re-provision the instance from image in this case.
