 * Shared folder and mountpoint pairs.
 * Default image image location so putting that info on kvmxfile is optional.
-* Use APP_BASE variable like the Hydra Suite (symlink handling, etc).
 * More kvmx-create params (ssh, serial console, etc).
 * Production mode (systemd service, serial console, no passwordless ssh, etc).
 * Support for more distros at kvmx-create (archlinux, gentoo, slackware, etc).
