So given the discussions we've been having on libvir-list and elsewhere, I'm
going to wait a while longer before exposing these knobs in the GUI since
there's lots of operational caveats.

I'll likely apply patch #2 and patch #3 to make sure the virt-install/virt-xml
command line is covered though, going to look at that soon.

Thanks,
Cole
