only master domain has the OVF files on it which would appear as "VMs" 
in the import tab.
this trick doesn't work with non master domains...
hopefully, now that there is a patch to detect and register orphan 
disks, you can use it instead (by having these disks moved to a data 
domain, then registering them in the engine).

(now == post 3.2, so you would need a patched or nightly version + this 
was merged earlier this week, so very young)
