Thoughts on virt-builder --output-alloc sparse|preallocated
...for replacing
the horrible OCaml Arg module with GNU getopt_long (-oa == -o + -a).
I initially tried to implement `--output-alloc sparse|preallocated'
using the Planner. I added an extra planner flag
[`Alloc, ("sparse"|"preallocated")]. I added extra transitions
such as `Copy_sparse_never ("cp --sparse=never"). The problem is that

block device. If the user did:
virt-builder --output-alloc sparse --output /dev/sdX
then the planner stage would actually fail because it couldn't find a
satisfac...
