I marked this as a RFC because I am concerned about my "naming scheme" of  the added parameters.
I couldn't decide which of the following "volumes/storage/disks/..." to use. I'd appreciate your
comments on this.

This is my second approach to this problem after I got some really good critique from Eric,
Daniel and Dave. The user has the choice to activate an interactive mode, that allows to select on a
per-device basis which volumes/disks to remove along with the domain.

To avoid possible problems, I only allowed to remove storage for inactive domains and unmanaged
I think you mean managed images, right?
Yes, managed images.
images (which sidetracked me a lot on my previous attempt) are left to a action of the user.
(the user is notified about any unmanaged image for the domain).

My next concern is about interactive of the user. I tried to implement a boolean query function,
but I'd like to know if I took the right path, as I couldn't find any example in virsh from which I
could learn.
We haven't previously implemented that much interactivity in virsh,
and I'm not sure I want to go down that road.  virsh is generally a
pretty straight passthrough to the API.  I'm sure others will have an
opinion on that question as well.
Well, yes, I found that out while looking for an interactive query method which I didn't find.

Other option, that comes into my mind is to add a command to list storage volumes for domains and then let the user specify volumes to be removed as parameters to the command "undefine".

Thanks for your comments (and time) :)
A few comments inline.

I think it would be clearer stated as "remove all associated storage
volumes", and correspondingly, call the option "storage-volumes".

That definitely looks better. Thanks.

How does this interact with --managed-save?  Can a user specify both
--managed-save and --disks to remove both managed save and storage volumes?

Definitely yes. It's kind of hard to see in the patch, because the contexts
got chosen very badly, but the user may specify both together and  gets
expected results.
