Should we rename the functions libxl_*nic* or the structures *vif* ?
Or should we rename both, to "net" perhaps ?
I think we should either rename the strucutres to nic also (because the
also hold ioemu cards), or get rid of nic/vif an name everything net.
Can you try to rename everything to `net' and see if that turns out to
be an impenetrable yak ?
I think it is much more easy to rename everything to nic, which provides
the same level of abstraction from my PoV. Renaming everything to net
it's a rather very big change. Would you be ok with that change?

I'd be happy with nic, I think it fits better with libxl_device_disk
anyway. (if it were libxl_device_net would be more analogous to
libxl_device_storage or something)

Done, I've added a pre-patch to rename every *vif* to nic.
