To date, anyone performing a block copy and pivot ends up with the destination being treated as <disk type='file'>. While this works for data access for a block device, it has at least one noticeable shortcoming: virDomainGetBlockInfo() reports allocation differently for block devices visited as files (the size of the device) than for block devices visited as <disk type='block'> (the maximum sector used, as reported by qemu); and this difference is significant when trying to manage qcow2 format on block devices that can be grown as needed.
