Since RHEL 6.1 External Beta has begun, and this bug remains unresolved, it has been rejected as it is not proposed as exception or blocker. Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to propose this request, if appropriate and relevant, in the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
As mentioned, this is already upstream, but probably warrants a rebase for 6.2

Not official yet, but I'm almost positive virt-manager will be rebased in 6.2, probably to a version that hasn't been released yet.
