After I added a convenient "show only active vms" mode to qubes manager (http://git.qubes-os.org/?p=joanna/qubes-manager.git;a=commitdiff;h=d953c7a6c58e13feeaf78271f80b60f006689d81;hp=76761f6ba5dc1677edfb427e168d82471c6d5b01), I realized that this feature doesn't work as expected. Namely when manager is in this mode, and the user starts a new vm, this new vm will not be displayed in the manager. This is because the VmManager.update_table() function is normally re-reading the list of all the VMs when there is qubes.xml change (via notification from the fs). And it is done this way, because reading the list is very CPU-heavy operation (well, python ;) and we don't want to waste CPU every 1 sec or so...
