Sorry, there is no such information currently tracked in <domain> xml.
You could use the metadata element to track this information yourself:
http://libvirt.org/formatdomain.html#elementsMetadata

but if we decide to add it in libvirt proper, it would not appear any
sooner than someone writes a patch (and certainly won't be in the
upcoming 1.2.2 release, since we're past feature freeze)
