I don't think so. It should persist with the VM (if you keep the libvirt config with it)...
The approach we took with Virt-Factory is to not use disk images, but start the install fresh every time, and use config management to pushchanges down.In a controlled environment, or once koan takes over the world, I would agree. However... this will not work in all cases (e.g. demo applliances, or operating systems with no public tree)
No argument there. In demo-land, you don't care about MAC collision, and randomization should be sufficient. I think.
No public tree? You can still distribute the install server.
