I have tried to infer +1/-1/0 numbers from the mail thread.  I have
also looked at libxl_types.idl to see how many times we are using
what name to represent roughly this concept:

 Bikeshed colour  Paul Juergen George Ian Anthony Wei #already

 unknown           ?      ?     -1    +2    ?     ?    17
 default           ?      ?     ?      0    ?     ?     2
 auto              -1     ?     +1     0    ?     ?     1
 unspecified       -1     +1    ?      0    ?     ?     0

                                      ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
                                      libxl maintainers

On this basis IMO clearly this should go back to "unknown".
I will do that in a respin (or maybe on commit) but right now I think
I am still awaiting a review for this patch.

Thanks,
Ian.
