Such an +image would sometimes be nice, and it'd be easier to resize. The +reason partitions are required is that vmdb2 specification files refer +to devices by symbolic names, or tags, and there's no way to refer to +the whole image with a tag. + +This will eventually be rectified. +See if you want +to comment. -- cgit v1.2.1
