Okay, marked as such in Launchpad.

Do you have a bug number for this one? I see #457055 [0], but that seems
to indicate you just want to auto-detect it. Has the use case of Windows
been covered? For example, I said in [1] that "...You need to tell KVM
to use virtio, but that wouldn't be a sane default for Windows because
it doesn't ship those drivers out of the box."

Do you have a reference for this? If not, is this doing an ACPI
shutdown? If so, what does it do for a Windows XP guest (which, at least
in the past, required ACPI be turned off or it'll use 100% CPU)? Has the
UI been updated to say "Shutdown" (and/or "Power Off") instead of
"Destroy"?

I don't mean to be nitpicky here, but you mean "Virtualization Tools",
right? I just want to make sure I have the right component.

Thanks,
Richard
