Users can now choose disk format (QCOW2 or RAW) when creating a virtual machine from a template. This functionality must be documented. Doc text from bug 1317453: When creating a virtual machine from a template, the user is able to choose the format of the disks: either RAW or QCOW2. The Allocation Policy section is now hidden. If the Template Provisioning is Thin, the format of the disks will be marked as QCOW2 and the user won't be able to change it. If the Template Provisioning is Clone, the user will be able to select either QCOW2 or RAW.
Assigning to Byron for review.
