It sounds far more complicated than the integrated process in oVirt for importing kvm virtual machines using libvirt. John, can you please share why do you seek for an alternative way?

The best and easiest way is via the Import dialog as you saw in 'virt-v2v-integration' wiki page. another way to do it and only for VMware (not KVM-Libvirt) is via the virt-v2v utility with the option '-o rhev' which export the VM to oVirt export domain and then you can import the VM to a data domain.
