That's a nice theory you've got there... :) I'd think a little script
management would go a long way until you have _every_ possible use
case in the system. :) As a developer I find at some point I always
get talked into adding that extra bit of flexibility even though no
user should ever need it. They always find something I never thought
of.
btw, do I put feature requests in bugzilla, or is there some other place?
Thanks for all of the help.

you're not supposed to need a hook under normal circumstances, when the functionality
is useful enough it should be built into vdsm natively...well, that's in progress for
this one for 3.4.1:)
Thanks,
