+This is available for storages which follow our most common naming scheme relating to volume types:
+A "vol-vm-" prefix for the C<vm-vol> vtype, and a "vol-ct-" prefix for the C<ct-vol> vtype.
+
+This function allows (and ignores) an optional "base-" prefix, such that
+"base-vol-ct-100-disk-0.raw" would return C<ct-vol>.
+
+In any other case it returns C<images>.

+ # Note: Despite the legacy `subvol-*` and `basevol-*` dirs always being containers, giving
