Hi Dimitris, not sure how far it will help you on this, but I ran into a similar problem regarding creating different instances with different disk templates. I sent a patch "[PATCH master 08/15] qa_instance: refactoring wrt disk templates" the other day (it is not reviewed yet). Maybe you can built on top of that once it is in.
