I kind of like having all the defaults set to what I'm currently
running.

One thing that bothers me is that we can't give the distro, arch, ... as
parameter when doing a lxc-create (which I'm assuming is the most common
way of using our templates).

Should we change the template to prompt the user instead? showing the
supported values for the distro and architecture (at least) and using
the current system's values as a default?
