Sorry to interrupt you again guys, but: the discussion started with 
virtio-blk hotplug and now we're talking about SCSI commands?  Sure 
somebody switched topic at some point :) and anyway this is irrelevant 
to what virtio-blk can/cannot do.

BTW, for virtio-scsi the spec provides a way to do hotplug and hotunplug 
without any polling, though it's not implemented yet in the driver.
