Ah, right. Same with bhyve and UML drivers.

Yep, understood. Fine to leave it.

Agreed, with ConsoleCallback being renamed to something a bit more generic like
DomainStartCallback or similar.

Yes, good point. I think it is best to generate the name when starting the VM.
Other drivers take the same approach.
So it looks like this simple patch could become a series in itself: one patch
adding libxl_domain_config to the libxlDomainObjPrivate struct, another patch to
rename ConsoleCallback to a more generic name, and finally this patch
implementing virDomainInterfaceStats on top of the others.
