In the mean time I confirm that I rebuilt 3.2.1 with that patch and
- clone from snapshot works now
- general, disks and network details are present in snapshot details pane now


I take the occasion to point two things

1) this is not new and I also noted many times in 3.2 too.
The first time you connect to web admin gui, the very first operation
that involves opening a new window, you get a non responsive white
window with the circle in the middle
If you close that window (the x at top right) and soon redo the same
operation, the window popups correctly
Probably I notice more this because I'm using oVirt all-in-one with my
Home pc and I reboot it every day....

2) when you make a clone from snapshot, if you don't set a name for
the clone and press ok, nothing happens and you can have the
impression that the window is waiting for something....
it could be better if after pressing the "ok" button and the user has
not selected a name, a message pop ups remembering that it is a
necessary condition to put a name for the clone...
Actually there is something that changes: the surrounding line of the
input field for the clone name changes colour, but as the line is very
thin I didn't notice it at first (add that I'm somewhow colour-blind
and you'll better understand my problem ... ;-)

Cheers,
Gianluca
