The problem with OVF is that it does not define actual disk image
format, it merely describes the VM for a management layer (like
libvirt), but makes no big effort to standardize disk format.

So it's basically useless in this context - it's kinda trivial to
provide the management stuff, the more important bit is the disk
content.
