Commit aa9e0057b19e29f76c9a81f9aebeeb1cb5bf1fdb made the libvirt backend use <shareable/> for the disk of the appliance, since at that time all the instances were using the disk directly. OTOH, commit 3ad44c866042919374e2d840502e53da2ed8aef0 switched to overlays for read-only disks, including the appliance, so effectively protecting the appliance. Because of this, the libvirt backend does not need <shareable/> anymore. Thanks to: Daniel Berrange, Richard W.M.
