[virt-tools-list] Memory usage and view in virt-manager

Hello,

I have happily been using virt-manager across eight or so host servers 
in a KVM environment.  Great tool, so thanks!

However, I have a suggestion.  In 0.7, it tracked memory usage per VM, 
so one could see at a glance both how much memory was allocated and 
actually in use by each VM.  It also totalled this up per host machine 
nicely.  In 0.8, that granularity is lost, though by clicking details on 
the host machine, you can still see how much total memory is allocated. 
  Are there plans to add this back into the new interface?

It would also be nice to be able to turn the icon size down/off.  When 
listing more than a handful of VMs, it is a lot of real-estate to cover. 
  Perhaps a view that has the nice new icons and graphs, and another 
"advanced" view that reduces icon and font size and maybe just prints 
the percent utilization instead of the graphs (and maybe some other things).

Cheers, and thanks.

-Jeff
