 Yes, it would be nice for more general cases, but that of 
course means controlling the guest environment, and that 
would mean more interaction with distro-specific aspects than 
I personally would like to take on at the moment.
It's not scary when we're doing it for xm-test, because we do 
control that environment, but doing it for general guests is 
more fiddly.  However, I'm sure somebody somewhere will want 
to know when the guest is actually booted, as opposed to 
merely started, and writing to xenstore seems like a good way 
to go about it.
   
 
It's arguable that having a irtual filesystem inplemented in the kernel
for accessing xenstore would be good.
  2.6.14 now has FUSE which allows for virtual filesystems to be 
implemented in userspace.

Ideally, it would need to support
mkdir and creating new files which is slightly tricky. Allowing
read/write of existing nodes should be straightforward building on sys
or proc.
