Thanks for the tip!  I'm not familiar with this feature and I don't
see any information about it in the Redhat RHEV documentation.  All
I've found is this:

  http://www.ovirt.org/Features/VMPayload

That suggests I can use the API to set this up, but is this possible
via the administrative UI instead?  Could I do this in a creation-time
VDSM hook?

Thanks,
