I started writing the changes in the email but got tired of it and just made a 
bunch of changes in the wiki (impossible to track in email, such things should 
be done using etherpad or something).

A few questions though:

plugged vs. enabled - I thought we converged on attached/detached and 
enabled/disabled and not plugged/unplugged? 

* Shared disks are attached with R/W permissions.
- What about enabling R/O ? (esp. for stateless/pools)


* Template disks should not be shared.
- Why not? (read only)

* When exporting a VM, only the disks which are not shared will be exported.
- Why is the above not treated the same as a snapshot? the configuration will 
reference the shared disk as unplugged? (or will it and it's just not clear?)

I didn't touch stateless/pools but should be fixed to reflect comments on this 
thread.

Is Remove shared disk and Delete shared disk the same thing? if so, why the 
dual terminology?
I don't quite follow the logic determining which section is under functionality 
and which under user experience.  For example, why do you have a 'Delete shared 
disk' section in the Ux section but not a 'Move shared disk' section (there is 
no shared disk specific logic visible in the delete action UI).


* Disk name should be generated automatically based on the vm name and disk 
number in the VM. Description will be empty.
* New disk should enforce the user to enter a name for the disk.
- Huh? the above 2 items seem like an oxymoron, but I may be missing 
something...

* Attach/Detach of a shared disk can be performed only when the VM is in status 
'down'.
- Why? under the functionality section you clearly stated that attaching a disk 
will result in it being attached but disabled...
