Re: [Xen-devel] problem about changing state to XenbusStateClosed result

removed from dom0 by 'xm block-detach'.
You could argue that you ought to be able to remove the frontend driver
module, and then load that module again and have all the devices
reconnect.
I've no idea whether that would have knock-on consequences though.
I think we really ought to be able to support this, but it hardly
sounds a priority. OTOH if it's simply a case of stopping the hotplug
scripts from zapping the xenstore entries, and instead do that in the
domain-destruction and vbd-remove paths of xend, then maybe it's not so
hard to fix. Anyway, I'd certainly consider the current behaviour to be
a bug, albeit perhaps a minor one.
