  What needs to be done to get ”minimal” support?  By minimal I understand
oVirt acknowledging that network interfaces are teamed.  Configuring teams
from oVirt can come later.  Right now teamed interfaces are displayed
as separate in net configuration dialog, and master team device is not
displayed at all.  I could live with manually configure teams if only
I can attach them to ovirt networks.
