[libvirt] [BUG] intermediate snapshot deleted

Hello,

I encountered another problem: snapshots are linked to there parent snapshot. 
If the parent snapshot is deleted, the chain gets broken and deleting the 
child snapshot terminates with an error message:
> error: Domain snapshot not found: no domain snapshot parent with matching 
name '1291813671'

I can reproduce this using the following sequence of commands for my 
test-domain called "test" using a singel qcow2 image:
# virsh snapshot-create test # 1291813670
# virsh snapshot-create test # 1291813671
# virsh snapshot-create test # 1291813672
# virsh snapshot-delete test 1291813671
# virsh snapshot-delete test 1291813672

Is this problem known (libvirt-0.8.3)?
Reverting to such an unlinked snapshot is still possible, but deleting it is 
not.

Sincerely
Philipp Hahn
