I put the new interface here:

http://sources.redhat.com/lvm2/wiki/FeatureRequests/dm/snapshots

Besides what we talked about, I also propose aliasing --virtualsize to -L 
for all non-snapshot volumes. Both these arguments will do the same thing 
if not operating on a snapshot.

The reason is that the same commands should be used if the user runs 
lvresize script on a snapshot or non-snapshot volume --- so that the virt 
team can write single scripts that can manage machines on both snapshot 
and linear volumes.
