There's two things in this are we'd like to do
- Full guest cloning (aka GUI for virt-clone). I believe that Cole has
got some UI designs for this being finalized, so hopefully get this in
the not too distant future
- Snapshotting. For this we want to improve the API coverage in libvirt
so we can more easily track the fact that some 'save' images may be
snapshots
