There is quite a difference in the goals of ovirt and foreman. I do think there will never
be such a feature in ovirt; foreman is live cycle and ovirt compute.

This is why on our site, for instance, users use Foreman as frontend while admins use oVirt directly.

However, it is quite easy to add existing VMs back to foreman:
In foreman, head to compute providers, ovrit, 'associate vms'
