As we all know we should not stop network when are some running vms
linked to this network.
But what about only stop vms linked to this network?
And what about only templates linked to this network?

Sheldon,
Would you elaborate? I am not sure what you are proposing.

Adam,
I think Sheldon is talking about what the procedure to take when a user
tries to remove/stop a network and it's being used (linked) only by
guests that are not running and/or templates.
IMO Sheldon, you must alert user which guests and templates have that
network configured, and then stop/remove it.

The network associated to a template or to *any* guest should not be
removed or deleted - even if the guest is not running.
If we allow user remove/stop a network associated with a stopped guest,
the user will not be able to start the guest again which breaks Kimchi
usability.
And if we allow user remove/stop a network associate with a template,
the user will not be able to create a guest from it (which also breaks
Kimchi usability).
I think it is already implemented that way and I don't see any reason to
change it.
Those kind of verifications were added to avoid users get inconsistent
resources - templates or guests.

Here's my understanding of the relationship between template and network.
It should be okay to create a template with a network that is not
started, or stop a network when there is no running VM. The template is
a static configuration, it should only check if a network exists. The
live checks should only be performed just before a VM is actually started.
