Oh, I feared it being so (the only other possibility was it expecting
me to place the config in a special place).
That's really sad - it makes virt-manager look really incomplete -
it's a small and probably very easy to implement function (for those
who wrote the program and know i inside out), and something one is
really missing and that makes the experience very inconsistent.

I mean, a VM even get's started after install - so it is really
frustrating when searching and searching through the GUI and trying
the restore button, and only after a long while coming up with the
idea "hey, maybe this function is simply not implemented because it's
alpha software" - which is easier for me to come up with than for many
other people, cause I'm a software developer.
