Yes, that sounds better than the current situation. Thanks for the
suggestion.

So, I was not really seeing the "wb" as "the guest shouldn't write to
this", but rather "do you want the file to be updated by what the guest
writes?".

I was more thinking about the case where you want to start guests with
the same starting data multiple times, without having to back up your
data files.

Does that make sense?

Thanks,

Julien
