[one-users] Cloud View with Persistent Image

[Ruben S. Montero]

We have the sheduled actions, as you know this feature triggers actions on
an specific date. We could extend these actions to be triggered on states
(i.e. triggered by the scheduler). This, compared with hooks (you can
program actions on given states), allow you to set the actions per VM. Also
users could access this feature, and no modification of oned.conf is
requires.

Does it make sense?

Cheers
