I'm preparing to add a storage table.  Extensive use will come later, but
for now, I'm planning on one field to kick things off:
storage.bootvolume
Takes a description of the desired boot volume. A few sample values:
usbdisk (install to first usb mass storage device)
localdisk (install to first non-SAN, non-USB device, though LSI SAS SAN
could still match due to the ambiguity there)
wwn=0x50000393c8136b6c (specifically target the device with the indicated
wwn)
driver=mpt2sas:1 (second block device that is managed by mpt2sas driver,
first one being '0')

This will be consumed by SLES/ESXi/RedHat/Windows installs (at least) to
guide auto-generation of a partition plan.  The driver= would likely not
work across everyone the same way, but the others would be consistent OS to
OS.
