More precisely, new code should use ERROR_CLASS_GENERIC_ERROR unless
there is a good reason where a caller knowing a different error class is
likely to react differently as a result (for example, with
'drive-mirror', libvirt DOES rely on QERR_DEVICE_NOT_FOUND as a witness
that the command supports an optional 'top' argument, vs.
ERROR_CLASS_GENERIC_ERROR to state that 'top' was still mandatory).

But I agree that this situation is one unlikely to be where libvirt
cares what error class was used.
