The domain destroy would not change cfg at all.

What I am looking for is a *decision* about what the right behaviour
is, backed up by a *rationale*.
The most obvious answer to me would be that if an rdms array is
specified, the strategy should be ignored. That is how the automatic
numa placement API works.
But another answer would be to take the union of the specified
regions. That would be more complicated, because the union would have
to be computed.

That doesn't, of course, compute the union.
Ian.
