I think I prefer #2  --  you need all of them running to do anything
useful, so might as well start them all from one place.

The only question is over things like xensv (web interface) that are
more complex and optional. They could be started from rc scripts, or
from xend after parsing xend-config.sxp

Best,
Ian
