libvirt/debian: Restrict user/domain access

I'm using Debian 9, Stretch, and if I add a user to the libvirt group, that user has full access to libvirt. That's fine and dandy, but what if I want to restrict user access to certain domains?
According to libvirt.org, that is possible but it seems to imply that you must use Javascript, only possible under polkit >= .106
; however, Debian (and Ubuntu) only provide polkit (PolicyKit-1) version .105, initially released in 2012!
Clearly Debian and Ubuntu are not liking the newer Javascript way of
things under polkit .106 and later, this is a curiosity by itselfRegardless, how can you really limit user/domain access in Debian
(and Ubuntu)?
Fwiw, I'm now considering running KVM under LXD.
