If you want to push the flexibility slider all the way to the right you get bare qemu. It exposes 100% of qemu capabilities. And it's not so bad these days. But it's not something that can be remoted.

As I mentioned earlier, remoting is not a very important use-case to me.

Does RHEV-M actually use the remote libvirt interface? I assume it'll talk to vdsm via some protocol and vdsm will use the local libvirt API.

Yes.

I suspect most uses of libvirt are actually local uses.

I expect the same, though I'm sure a design goal was to make use of libvirt be reasonable through the remote API. If we aren't able to fulfil it, much of the value of libvirt goes away.
