I don't think I'm qualified to talk about the console backend
implementation (and possible quirks it has). Generally I'd expect
backends not to use domctl-s, as that would tie them to the tool
stack domain.

Well, without having the context of who it would be to use such a
domctl (and for what purpose) I don#t think I can comment here.
