On a side note, we aren't limited to libvirt-supported storage. KVMStoragePoolManager allows for multiple storage adaptors, so you can just add yours to the adaptor map in there and create a MyStorageAdaptor that implements the various methods like CreatePhysicalDisk, etc , similar to LibvirtStorag
