Not per say. This wouldn't be difficult for you to add though -- Xend has all
the information you need, so you just need to take a start-up and shutdown
script from the domain configuration, call the former on creation of the domain
(asynchronously, I presume), write the latter in the store for retrieval
by Xend, and then call it on domain destruction.
Alternatively, you could write your own tool (in Python or C would be easiest)
and watch the store in the same way as the other tools do, waiting for watches
on @introduceDomain and @releaseDomain.

I'll let others answer, as I don't know the specifics, but I do know that the
VMX guys use VNC, and I believe that VNC is used on the Xen demo CDs, so there
should be enough code lying around for you to get the bits that you need.
