Yep it was heading that way, and it's name was historical based on the 
original virt-pack work. Either way is fine with me, I figured getting a 
couple formats out there first and then rebasing the master conversion 
program to virt-convert might be easier once the few types of 
conversions had been used a bit to beat out any potential bugs.
