Comment 7 Cole Robinson 2012-02-13 15:02:12 UTC 
zhe peng, Since the quote from DV in that bug comes from a qemu dev, I assume at the qemu level they are not supporting the functionality, so disabling it in the UI is probably the best idea. Users can't still create it by hand in the XML if they desire.
Comment 8 zhe peng 2012-02-14 01:08:04 UTC

verify with :
virt-manager-0.9.0-9.el6
