Our goal is that the user should never have to pick the OS type/variant except for when doing PXE boot. I think its reasonable to make ti default to the current host Fedora version in this case. In non-PXe cases, it should be auto-detecting the correct type/variant from the install URL you give it. > The installation media URL example is generic, it would also be nice if > it defaulted to the mirror manager download link for the version > selected above. It'd be nice to be able to pre-populate a list of URLs for all common distros, so you could simply pick one off the list. Any idea if mirror manager provides a URL we can fetch to obtain a complete list of all supported Fedora OS versions, so we can avoid hardcoding this. > Also, libvirt ships with a 'default' network but not a default storage > pool.

Yes, IMHO, if virt-manager connects to a libvirt host and finds that no storage pools are configured, then it should create one based on /var/lib/libvirt/images.
