Becase here is where we know that _this_ machine had _this_ versions of
each device.  And this is also the trivial part to describe: I want a
machine like the one in qemu-0.11.

What is more, it makes trivial for downstream to do things like:
- I define my machine, called foo-7.0, and the changes that it has over
  any other machine.

Later, Juan.
