> Qemu is not a hypervisor This will be even more confusing. It looks like hypervisor much more than libvirt. Moreover, according to Wikipedia [1] (don't blame me guys) Qemu is Type-2 hypervisor.

Sheena, are you sure it works this way? Some time ago we didn't support this. However, I fully support this idea and believe this is the way to go. In this case the hypervisor entry could be called something like "Qemu (+ KVM if available)".
