I disagree, i find it pretty handy and intuitive to run 'kvm ./disk.img' to 
boot KVM and this particular tool name has not been taken yet either.

perf uses a similar concept: the kernel subsystem is generally called 'perf', 
and the (Linux specific) user-space tool is called 'perf' as well. It makes 
quite a bit of sense.

Thanks,
