Pavel, Thanks for your comments. I'll work through the examples and post an updated patch soon. As for the Configuring VM operation - can we at least have a couple of examples in the form of scenarios or something? The wiki page only gives a reference, an enumeration of available options. Using these might not always be transparent. I know it's tutorial-level info, but why not have it? Giving a show-case of customizing vm to a specific need would be great.
