Together with this, we should consider persisting disk's interface. Today, if a disk is originally defined as Virtio, once the domain is imported, the disk looses the definition and considered as IDE.

The disk interface is not part of the disk, it's a property of the relationship between the disk and the VM, and should be saved in the OVF. This should be fixed for 3.5.3 with bug 1197444 - if it is not, please open another bug with all the relevant details.
