Hi,

I noticed today while running a VMware environment (although that probably
doesn't matter) that when I destroyed, but did not expunge, a VM, I was
given the option to later expunge it (expected) or recycle it (un-expected).

I wonder if we mean to let the user restore the VM (i.e. un-destroy it)
instead of recycle it (i.e. create a new root disk for the VM)?

Thanks,
Mike
