something is wrong with the permissions, since the import images are not
added to check_volume_access, I can now upload an OVA, but not see it
afterwards ;)

I guess if a user has upload rights for improt images
(Datastore.AllocateTemplate), they should also be able to see and use
(and remove) import images?
