It was just an idea that popped in my head. All in all I've likely spend less 
then a minute thinking about the domid idea.
Don't spend more on it then you already have ;)

I can make a case for both xen-users and xen-devel.
xen-users:
It could be that a solution already exists. I know that in Qubes (which uses 
Xen) has some dependency mechanism in that if you start vmA which depends on 
vmB, then it first starts vmB and then vmA. I don't know if that is a Qubes 
'extension' or that they simply use available functionality of Xen.

xen-devel:
If needed functionality doesn't yet exist and needs to be built anew, then 
xen-devel is the right place to discuss that.

It could be that the best place to start is xen-users which then may/could 
'transition' to xen-devel.

Let's hear others first what they think is the best approach.

Cheers,
  Diederik
