I don't follow this - yes, in the abstract it makes sense; but when I
look at an actual image.xml, having the storage element there seems to
make the XML clearer. I'd change it if that is seen as the crucial issue
keeping these patches from being committed. Otherwise, I'd prefer
leaving <storage> as it is.

Heh ;) I had that at some point and somebody objected to calling that
<domain> .. I'll change the code to use <domain>
