   I had not thought about the restore side, but it would make sense to be able 
to do the initial creation and restore all volumes attached to an instance 
simultaneously.  And yes, I was assuming that it would be a VM snapshot 
(without memory).    The Instance would be powered off, so it would be clean 
and no need for a memory snapshot.
