I will say that the 'virbr0' is largely ignored one way or another. Someone may call their bridge anything from 'br0' to 'xcatisawesome' (I tend to like 'default' for whatever reason). I am tempted to rip out virbr0 by default, as it has a high chance of trampling your production ip range if using 192.168 private addressing. I think libvirt packaging with a default auto-start network out of the box is a mistake.
