I'm not convinced either - just wanted to raise the issue.

Also, i raised this in the other thread, why not use .kvmtool of the 
current directory? That way it's cwd local like Git and perf. A 'kvm 
run' (union?) mount the cwd or so - so this would be a natural 
equivalent to chroot. The $HOME/.kvmtool is a Qemu-ish global 
workflow.

Thanks,
