No, it doesn't work as expected. I would expect to have an option to attach
to any Virtual Machine storage which is either shared or local.
For example, I have database server so I could put on shared storage and
use local, SSD disk for data. I don't care if system is on "slow" network
storage but with a lot of space and in the same time, I can use limited,
but fast SSD space for data only.
So, is this possible or not?

Works as expected, doesn't it? What do you want to exactly achieve
with local storage?
