Okay, I was a bit confused before since you mentioned restarting the host. But
the above makes more sense. virt-manager only refreshes the forward device
list in that wizard when it is first run, we should be at least doing it every
time the wizard is launched. I've fixed that upstream now but it likely won't
ever trickle into RHEL6 FWIW.
