[RFE] For Create VM from a template, can we expose the clone parameter in the summary view?

We could name it independent virtual machine following naming in the API.

Can we expose clone parameter in the summary view? We could name it independent virtual machine following naming in the API.

What would the purpose of that be? It wasn't important to display an auto-calculated value previously. Since there is no way for the user to control that setting my initial thought is that it would be more confusing than helpful.

linked-clone vs full-clone functionality seems important important enough to be part of the summary. IMHO eventually it should be an editable property.
testing/preventing regressions (it's easier to notice invalid value)
educating users - choosing different storage domain makes the VM server-like although it's marked as desktop (it would be better then to explicitly switch to "optimized for server" mode)
