It does make some sense; overall I don't think there's a really good answer
here. In trying to figure out what's the most sensible given that, I looked
at what libvirt does, which is turn it on globally in exactly the hidden way
you suggest, and makes no attempt to restore it. I'm not really excited
about that, but apparently that's been the case for a while.
