Network management

In Networks section, instead of just viewing the networks, to be able to edit the network settings of the host - like DHCP range, reserved addresses, rules, etc. supported by libvirt network.

Is this requirement really needed? Cloud service providers may use some automated mechanism for adding networks to be used for the VMs (while adding a new host node). And they may not give such add network feature for users. It is just my guess.

What attracted me to this project is its simplicity like digitalocean and use of Go language. Please don't add all fancy requirements if it is not really needed for your targeted customers.

This would be a real nice to have for a lab environment where I want to set up a infrastructure that mirrors the staging/production environment.

Some cloud providers definitely allow their users to create new back-channel (bogon) networks and join their VMs to those networks.

Yeah, cloud providers may use some mechanism, but when you become cloud provider for yourself you need this mechanism too :) This is not high priority feature, but I think it should be done some day because managing libvirt xml is a pain.

Yes. That is correct. Thanks for the expert opinions.
