Yep, I did wonder about that.

But... there's actually quite a lot that isn't really dom0-specific.
Rather, it's IO-domain-specific.  Configure a PV guest with PCI
passthrough and you'd want much of the same functionality in it.  

Also, adding CONFIG entries just increases the size of the source right
now.  I certainly think it's worth having eventually, but for now I'm
aiming for minimal invasiveness, so I haven't bothered with domU-only
configs.

If people think it's important I can add them sooner rather than later,
of course.

Cheers,
 Stephen
