Hi Justin,
Yes, we are aware of this new feature and I like it a lot. Actually we were
pushing this for a half year (there is even RFE open from us in RHEVM/oVirt BZ ;-)
The problem we are facing now, is not 'how to implement that' (it's pretty
straight forward),
but 'if we are going to implement it now()'.
Since the majority of people now are using RHEV-M 3.0 and we need to support that,
JRD and others hesitate to switch over to this feature and claim hook method
'obsolete'.
What I think we can do here is to update rbovirt gem, we use as interface for oVirt API
and add this new feature there along with the old hook code. That can work together
for old hook method and also for new method.
There is also problem with Audrey agent. I think with this new method, the user-data
file will appear in different location (correct me if i'm wrong). It will mean
that Audrey will somehow need to know to what version (of what injection method) was
used when launching an instance.
Cheers,

Seems to me we need to get working now on compatibility across rhev
3.0/oVirt 3.1 and (eventually) rhev 3.1. We're going to have to support
both versions anyway, so let's get it done now.
Michal let me know if you need any help making this happen.
