During the first development, I noticed the virDomain.metadata and 
virDomain.setMetadata does not work
well in all libvirt versions.

While using those functions, some libvirt versions will report:

libvir: QEMU Driver error : argument unsupported: QEMU driver does not 
support<metadata> element

But if you manually get and set metadata element, libvirt works fine.
