Hi,

Technically, it could be possible to support any kind of src/dst format for offline migration,
with creating an nbd server on target (with qemu-nbd for example).

Maybe it could be implemented as fallback, if any other method exist ?

Let's make this one an RFC ;) 
The problem is that offline migration with target storage might not 
always work depending on supported export/import formats. Then users 
might start an offline migration, which then fails after a few disks 
have already been copied. 
If we had a check for the export/import formats before starting 
migration, it would improve. But currently the erroring out happens on a 
per disk basis inside storage_migrate. 

So I'm not sure anymore if this is an improvement. If not, and if patch 
#3 is fine, I'll send a v2 without this one.
