I know that virRun is implemented in terms of virCommand, but should
be we aiming to convert virRun uses over to directly use virCommand ?

Here, virRun really is nicer, because it is the only interface that lets us modify _just_ qemuimgarg[4] without having to alter the earlier array elements. If we directly used virCommand, we'd have to start from scratch each time around, or add a new virCommand interface that would let us delete or otherwise modify arguments previously added. That, and this new code was merely copying after other functions that did qemu-img snapshot -c and qemu-img snapshot -d for multiple files.


ACK
