So this has changed in 4.1. You can now choose to seal a template during
its creation. This will take a VM, that may have not been sealed, create a
template out of it and then invoke virt-sysprep on the template's disks.

Joel, in the 'make template' dialog you'll see a checkbox (at the bottom)
for 'Seal Template' that will do the trick. There is also a 'seal'
parameter in the REST-API, of course [1].
