[ovirt-users] Rename disks when creating VM from Template

[s k]

I just created https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1105887
As I'm mentioning, it would be great if the disks could be renamed automatically based on the VM name or the hostname in cloud-init tab.
Alternatively, a "Disks" tab could be created that includes all the disk related configuration instead of having them at the bottom of Resource allocation tab.
