Such a descriptive commit message...Please, add either rfc or extend
commit message to get others a change to dive into your patch:
why do you need that engine, why alternatives are not suitable and so
on and so forth. It's not only about this patch, but the next one
as well.

As an alternative to 'virtual' name I can suggest 'service', 'system'
(not so good since we already have 'sysview'), 'sysspace' (similar to
'sysview').
