If you like this feature, please send a patch to OMV, so that everyone
can flip it on/off with a simple flag.

Personally, I prefer the hostmanager version because it's probably about
10x faster to run, and updates automatically when needed (as hosts come
and go) but the OMV is not dogmatic about how users should configure
things.

Ouch, Burn! Async FTW! There are a bunch of other people using OMV, and
one user has even started an external IRC channel: #ohmyvagrant

The channel isn't hugely known or popular yet, but you're invited to
join if you like. It's a channel for users, hacking on OMV, and help
writing patches for it too! Usual rules apply, so come, but be positive!

The biggest issue the project faces, is that the Fedora packages for
vagrant+vagrant-libvirt don't work perfectly, so it's hard to get those
up and going, and they're a pre-req for OMV. One such bug:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1221006

Cheers,
James
