Hi Neil,

I tested your patch. I assume you wanted to use 'metadata_version',
because there is no 'metadata' attribute, right? I had also thought
about that, but simply looking for 'external:' is not enough to
determine that the array is a container - for volumes inside the
container it looks like this: 'external:/md127/0'. But I think that the
arrays you want to ignore will just have 'none' there, so maybe it can
be done like this?
