Public bug reported:

Steps to reproduce:
1. Start with powered off VM.
2. Use 'virsh edit domain' to add the line <driver cache='none'/> to each 
<disk> clause.
3. Run 'virsh dumpxml domain' and note that the cache lines you just added have 
disappeared.
4. Start the domain and look at the kvm command line. It includes the 
cache=none option on the appropriate -disk options.
5. Stop the domain.
6. Use 'virsh edit domain' to make an unrelated change (e.g. memory size).
7. Because the <driver cache='none'/> lines were no longer there, the cache 
options are removed next time the domain is booted.

Expected behavior:
The <driver cache='none'/> line stays in the file just like every other valid 
option.

I'm really confused as to where libvirt is storing the fact that I
disabled the cache, since it does take effect despite disappearing from
the XML file.

Ubuntu Karmic, libvirt 0.7.0-1ubuntu13.
