I just meant we need to be careful when implementing if we want to apply
new rules directly/honor them while services are running. E.g. say a new
rule vm:101<->vm:102 is introduced, with 101 on node A and 102 on node
B. Then the HA manager should only issue a migration command 101 to B or
102 to A, but not both of course.

Might be better as a follow-up/separate series, to not blow up the
series here too much.
