Hi Richud,
The upstream feedback sort of repeats our discussion.
Just as I have recommended to use in the meantime e.g. at comment #7 that we 
could use:
  virsh snapshot-revert <guestname> <snapshot>
  virsh edit <guestname> (set type)
  virsh start <guestname>

Our argument to add the new feature was to have a way to permanently modify the 
snapshot so that it works from there on forever.
That suggestion was now extended by the upstream discussion [1] to be covered 
with
  virsh snapshot-revert <guestname> <snapshot>
  virsh edit <guestname> (set type)
  virsh snapshot-create <guestname> ...

That would essentially behave like my patches at a slight discomfort of needing 
more commands.
I have to admit that I think that would work for you, and I have a hard time to 
convince [1] people otherwise.
If you think adding the changes as you tested them from the PPA, could you 
chime in on [1] and do the "convincing" as you are the affected person that 
makes more sense.

P.S. I have put a task on next release to reconsider dropping the old
types, yet I want something to force people off the old types - but that
is for another day.
