Is there no way in which one can access the host's filesystem from within a
guest OS.
Libvirt's virt-manager GUI seems to indicate that there is, by virtue of
the FileSystem Passthrough option as shown below

The scenario I typically have is a Linux Server on a ext4 file system, with
a Windows 7 Guest OS running a KVM machine.
No matter what combination of options I choose, I can never "mount" the
host drive in Windows to be able to transfer files from one to the other.
Both VMWare Player and Virtualbox have this capability, yet I find this
sorely lacking in libvirt/virt-manager. What do I need to do to make this
work?
