ACK. I will add it in V3.


I dislike the UI design, please change it.

This specific patch is to fix bug instead of redesign.
So please, send a patch to redesign this view.
Opened an issue to track it. https://github.com/kimchi-project/kimchi/issues/305

I also would like to suggest more improvements to this network creation window.

1. To select a network type I need to select the circle itself, which is boring.
   In other views selecting the text select the item. You need to do it here too.
Accept, quite easy, hope you can also get it handled in your V3.

2. The additional input boxes for bridged network should only appear when selecting this option.
   So in a first moment, we only show the 2 options.
   When selecting "Briged" option we display:
  
    Destination: | <iface> |
    * Enable VLAN

    When only when selecting "Enable VLAN" we display the vlan_id input box.
From a usability perspective, I disagree with this point.
1. The space is not limited. We should disable something instead of hide/show something per user selections.
2. To get everything there, user can totally figure out what to input with consideration of all items. It greatly promote predictable UI.
3. If by default hide something and show it when user select something, it will definitely delay user input which is inefficient design.

Commit 2f54aaba added a checkbox to provide choice of enabling vlan tagging
while creating a bridged network, but it doesn't check the checkbox before
setting the vlan_id to send server request.

Because that when the user tries to create a bridged network without enabling
VLAN the following error is raised:
Invalid parameter: 'None is not of type u'integer''

Fix it by setting vlan_id only if the vlan checkbox is checked.
