[virt-tools-list] virt-resize: respect sparse files

Unless I'm doing something wrong, it seems that virt-resize currently
doesn't notice if the source image is sparse during it's copy process. For
example, if I have a 5GB sparse image that is really only 1GB in used space,
and want to grow that image to a 10GB sparse image with virt-resize.. I end
up with a 10GB sparse image now with 5GB used.
Would it be possible for virt-resize to pay attention to "sparseness" during
the copy process by default or offer an option to do so?
Thanks
