Yes it does:

That code seems to answer the original question, although it doesn't
seem to be documented. It looks as if the username comes from the
libvirt URI (ie. -oc option, I'm not sure exactly how it's encoded)
and the password comes from ~/.netrc (must be mode 0600).
Probably best to ask Matt about this one.
