How can we solve these common user problems?

- In guestfish, specified -m non-existent filesystem. We could suggest
- a list of filesystems, or suggest they run the virt-list-filesystems
- command.
-
- Related to the above: There should be an API call to list all
- mountable / accessible devices. Or a guestfish command to replace
- list-devices, list-partitions, lvs, vfs-type.

Better support for encrypted devices

Display the structure of an image file as a PS.

+Greater use of blkid / libblkid
+-------------------------------
+
+guestfs_zero should use wipefs. See wipefs(8).
+
+There are various useful functions in libblkid for listing partitions,
+devices etc which we are essentially duplicating in the daemon. It
+would make more sense to just use libblkid for this.
+
+There are some places where we call out to the 'blkid' program. This
+might be replaced by direct use of the library (if this is easier).
