Description
Currently we do auto-commit for the template changes, so that whenever the user shuts down a template VM, all the changes are automatically committed.
However, it would actually be better if we could display a dialog box on template shutdown asking the user if he or she intends to commit or discard the changes just introduced to the template.

Hm, I don't think that originally there was a dialog box to confirm the changes... IIRC, originally the user had to do qvm-comit-template or press the comit button in the mamanger. Any of this was just too easy to forget about.
Anyway, perhaps doing the default commit, but also having such a rollback tool might be the best solution (plus a rollback button in the manager).

Originally there was dialog box and this was bad. Now there is no dialog box and also this is bad...
I think there is another way to solve the true problem - easy way to rollback last changes. This can be separate tool (qvm-template-rollback) which will do the work (as described in full procedure some time ago in email).
