Description Jeremy Bicha 2016-05-19 00:53:00 UTC 
It would be nice if Boxes would have a button to duplicate or copy a VM.

I don't think Snapshots are always adequate.

My specific use case is that I have Ubuntu 16.04 LTS in a VM (running GNOME 3.18). I want a second VM that is also Ubuntu 16.04 LTS but with GNOME 3.20. With Boxes, I'd have to reinstall Ubuntu 16.04 LTS to get that second VM.

Already fixed that. :)
