Yes, I guess I didn't implement that bit yet, but not specifying -s was
meant to do a simple copy.  You'll probably want to check whether the
original was a simple directory tree or an lvm, and only lvcreate if the
original was an lvm.  (then lxc-convert can offer conversion from one to
the other.)
