I know that the main libvirt storage driver uses a path for 'key'
currently, but if you have a choice with ESX, it would be desirable
to use a 'better' unique identifier for key. The idea is that 'key'
is trying to provide a unique identifier that is stable even if the
volume is moved or renamed, but still points at the same underlying
data. A path is fine as the catchall fallback case, but if there's a
a UUID, or SCSI/iSCSI LUN WWID then that's better.

ACK, to the patch anyway since we can change this later if desired.
