The other descriptions all mention 'what' the content is. Well, except
'rootdir', but that should also be changed IMHO. Playing the devil's

import content type, then I can import to that storage'.

Applied, using
'OVAs and VM disk images that can be imported from this storage'
after a brief off-list discussion, thanks!
