	I've used lvm commands from python code (for stacaccli) and it pained
me to do that, especially from an error handling POV - anaconda is
another example of code that does this.

	So, a C library for LVM with python bindings would be great, but it's a
big job ... lvm's internal API as used by the lvm command just isn't
suitable for wider consumption IMHO.
