Virt-manager ought to really keep the CDROM attached for windows guests. The user can later explicitly detach it with the recent created device add/remove UI in virt-manager. There is UI in the wizard where the user can select what type of guest is being installed, so virt-manager could check the 'continue' flag based on the selected OS to decide whethe rto keep the CDROM attached.
