Yes ... In truth, I really want to augment this job to provide a defined
point-in-time semantic so it can be fully useful in all circumstances.

At the moment, the point-in-time it provides is "at finalize", which may
or may not be the single most useful semantic. (It matches mirror --
because that was easier.)

The other option is "at start" which matches backup, but will require a
new filter and some changes to permissions. That was more invasive, so I
avoided it for now.

(In the interest of a speedy resolution for libvirt, can we add a
critical_moment=[START|FINALIZE] option to this job *later*?)
