I've used virt-manager with Xen mostly so far but I did some things with
xen a couple of weeks ago. In that case we had several paravirt
instances already. What we did was starting the instances with xm,
then running 

virsh dumpxml domain-id > bla.xml
virsh define bla.xml

Afterwards things can be mainained via virt-manager nicely.  But you're
right virt-manager/virt-install need Debian support for xen paravirt
guests. I might need to write something along these lines in the next
weeks shouldn't we switch to KVM entirely.
