Indeed it does. However, virt-manager also insists on automatically starting the VM, and I usually also change something in their settings _before_ the installation, so I can’t use that feature. (It does offer changing some settings before initially starting the VM, but that doesn’t have the final configuration, and is *extremely* laggy up to unusable if libvirt runs on a different system than virt-manager.)

In general, this is probably useful.
