Upstream has responded, and it's indeed a tad more complicated:
https://lists.libvirt.org/archives/list/de...@lists.libvirt.org/message/BUTSYSN22Y57GHHWHJW7FTMEZTJWZ4ZN/
As such, I'm refraining for pushing these changes and will find a different
workaround.

Hi,
Currently, the permissions for /var/lib/libvirt/images are root:root u=rwx,go=x.
It would be nice to change those to root:libvirt ug=rwx,o=x. This should not
change anything from the security standpoint, as users of the libvirt group can
already interact with libvirtd and add/remove/modify VMs.
The upside would be that virt-v2v can run without root permissions, as it
directly writes to that dir. I have verified that changing the permissions
allows virt-v2v to run rootless.
For completeness, this is the command line I've tested it with:
virt-v2v -i ova -o libvirt -of qcow2 -oo compressed -oc 'qemu:///system'
win11.zip -on win11trial
Regards,
Lee
