For the multi-disk case at least, it's definitely useful and the patch
in bugzilla would do wonders for getting it in the package ;-)

Yeah, I'm not entirely happy with the default bridging setup, but am not

suggestions and seeing what works for people.

Personally, my own preference is leaning more towards some form of NAT
setup.  This introduces complications with migration, though.
