- management
- appropriate callbacks

cluster mirror
stacking LVs
pvmove, snapshot, mirror of root filesystem
installer support
"volume ownership" (node ownership, boot, etc)
configurable ID at install time (some overlap w/volume ownership)

<<<somewhat of a lively discussion here as to whether we should do this
or not;
- agk: there is a big need here, we get questions/complaints on the
mailing list and IRC all the time that people have done the resize wrong and lost data,
kevin: this is a higher-level function beyond the scope of LVM>>>
