Hi,

Virt-manager is really terrific! So easy to use!

Got a few suggestions:

- add a password protection layer or user levels or extra "are you
  sure"'s as it is now rather trivial to accidently delete a virtual
  machine and/or its virtual disk

- add management of iSCSI and NBD to the user interface (NBD has named
  exports these days)
  - maybe integrate/connect-to storage management interfaces
    There was some project going on for creating a generic interface for
    storage systems. Can't rember what it was. Did a 1 minute Google.

- when you need to select storage and a logical volume was created on
  the commandline, then virt-manager needs to explicitly be refreshed.
  maybe add this refresh-button to the selection-screen as well as
  currently you have to navigate back the overall configuration screen

- create some kind of button which opens the overall config-screen (the
  one with storage, networking, etc.). personally I did not find double
  clicking on the pull-down title (the one above the guests with e.g.
  "localhost (QEMU)" in it)
