I didn't yet have a look at the rest, but this made me curious. What are you actually doing with this with internal snapshots? There in fact isn't a save image at all with internal snapshots as the memory image is stored in the qcow2 image (in a different section than the data -> thus also the name internal) so I'm not exactly sure what you are refering to here in the commit message.
