So my plan was to use LVs directly as partitions in the guest
/dev/vg/lv1 -> /dev/hda1
/dev/vg/lv2 -> /dev/hda2 (or /dev/hdb1 FWIW)
       
 
 AFAIK this way is not to be supported in the future.
     
 
it would be a real shame.
i think most installers can respect an existing partition scheme.  if
not, they should soon, since most integrators are realizing that
installing an OS doesn't mean owning the whole hardware
   
 Agreed. It makes snapshotting and backup of the mountable filesystems 
one heck of a lot easier to manage, without the vagaries of having to 
interpret the disk images internal file structure.
