Sorry, I hadn't spotted there was a spec up for review.
I will go take a look at that, and add my comments on there.

Certainly the XenAPI host maintenance mode was built for support of
XenServer pools.
That support is currently untested, so I want to push for that to be
deprecated, and eventually removed.
