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
