I think you have to explain in detail what you mean with "patch", otherwise no one can follow or help. Especially as items 3 and 4 seem to hint that you want to modify the disk contents and not the memory state of a VM (so the .sav file is not the right thing). At least for 4 I can give you an answer: since snapshots are meant to be the state of a VM as of a given time one can't modify them safely, especially when there are child snapshots. The only disk state which can be safely modified is "current state" (which is not a snapshot).
