Hello,

Will be issue with a lot of virtual machines fixed at new Qubes Manager at Q4.0?

Now it's not possible to use QM if there are too much VM created at the list (hide by the monitor height, no scroll, and it's hard to search for VMs if 2-3 created for some one task.

I'm about groups and _sub-groups_ for virtual machines (like folders on the disk. + setting for group to setup default state:collapse or expand after boot or remember last choose)


It will be comfortable to group them and hide not every day used VMs.
See example, it's hard to describe:


-system group (collapse by default)
-- sys-net
-- sys-firewall
-- sys-usb

-entertainment (group, EXPAND by default)
--videovm
--browser-mail-every-day
--etc

-profiles-storage (group, collapsed)
--sub-gropup-person (sub-group)
--- personal-browser-vm
--- personal-proxy-vm
--- personal-othe-task-vm
--sub-gropup2-person2 (sub-group2)
--- personal-browser-vm
--- personal-proxy-vm
--- personal-othe-task-vm
--sub-gropup3-person3 (sub-group3)
--- personal-browser-vm
--- personal-proxy-vm
--- personal-othe-task-vm


-development (
--some-official-work
--development-some-other-work
--site1-admin
--site2-admin

-templates (group, collapsed)
--template1
--template2
--template3

-proxies(group, collapsed)
--proxy1
--proxy2

etc.


Tags might be a better solution, since they are not limited to hierarchical representation. You could have VMs that occupy multiple 'groups'. The UI could have display toggle buttons for specific tags--easy to implement and very flexible.
