Ovirt devel - Jun 2008 - What is hypervisor specific intelligence ?

Right the oVirt management platform only works with the supplied KVM
based image.
We'll be adding support for RHEL 5's Xen implementation later. Other
platforms could be supported later but *we need to build in more
hypervisor specific intelligence.*

In your reply to the subject, "What is oVirt?", you said
it is needed to build in more hypervisor specific intelligence.
Thus I wonder what hypervisor specific intelligence is.
Would you let me know that and, if possible,
what specific features of oVirt are related to it.
Have a good day!

In my followup email to Andrew, I actually wrote a little bit about what would
be needed:
