I believe it was part of a general clean-up to try and use XenServer public APIs; rather than modify the XenServer itself, which may or may not work in future XenServer versions.

In Xenserver625StorageProcessor we seem to handle this kind of work in Java code instead of calling into the XenServer plug-ins. I was curious if anyone remembers the history behind this transition?
