Can you explain a bit more why you need to be able to expose a virtual
disk to the sandbox. If the stuff running inside the sandbox is not
privileged, it won't even have access to the device node inside it,
nor be able to mount it. This is why the sandbox code focuses on
mounting everything itself before handing off the main app to run.
So I'm not really clear how this feature is going to be generally
useful or usable.
Before filling the qcow2 images, we need to be able to format them...
would you then suggest to manually setup the nbd device, and run mkfs on
it? I was thinking about having that done through virt-sandbox...
