Just wanted to add some more details about this. In my own testing, KVM with file/qcow images on Gluster is pretty slow right now. This will speed things up significantly. Enough that perhaps when it's released it might be worthwhile to recommend as a default storage facility. More details about this are available here http://raobharata.wordpress.com/2012/10/29/qemu-glusterfs-native-integration/ and that includes some examples of getting it working with the 3.4 beta.
Further, I have experience with scaling out Gluster storage in very high load production so if there are any questions about getting stuff working, just let me know!

Implementing this should be easy:

I'm about 50% done with this. Still writing shell scripts but oned and sunstone code has been added.
