Yeah, I also saw in docs that *update-device *is supported since 0.8.0
version,
not sure why it didn't work in my setup.
I installed latest libvirt 1.2.3 and now update-device works just fine and
I am able
to move instance tap device from one bridge to another with no downtime and
no reboot!
I'll try to investigate why it didn't work on 0.9.8 and which is the
minimal libvirt version for this.

Thanks,
Oleg
