This does mean that 90% of features is actually already in place
(other things are more cosmetics: it's not a big deal if mkfs warns
that it is creating a fs in a disk instead of a partition). Although
'virsh blockresize' seems pretty new, sorry if this discussion turned
to be more user related.

Thanks,
