Thanks for your clear and rapid response, even though it's sad.

I wonder if people are not using live-migration as much as we do to 
allow for rolling maintenance (packages, kernel updates, HW 
replacements, ...)
on their compute servers without interrupting user workload (much).

Since the functionality to "bypass" the filters is there, even in an old 
microvesion ... why not (allow to) skip filters when a distinct host is 
chosen? That's something that can only be used by admins anyways.
And it would create  a way to migrate those instances away and be able 
to completely free a host.
