I believe that it was because it was so late in the cycle that we had
to do the minimal fix.

The situation with libvirt was that machines would be deleted when the
host restarted (e.g. power loss, kernel update etc). EC2 does that,
Rackspace doesn't, but irrespective we knew that it would hit some
people really hard.

I agree that it would have been nice to have the flexibility to
address the issue more completely.
