Public bug reported:

This is just a small feature request. While vmbuilder is running, it
constructs the new VM in /tmp under a randomly generated folder name
like 'tmpkJv90L'. When it's finished, it moves the completed image file
to the location given by the --dest option, however, it retains the
cryptic folder name as the filename for the image file. So for example
if I specified --dest /home/me/webserver --hostname webserver and I end
up with a folder containing run.sh and an image file called
tmpkJv9OL.qcow2. It would be nicer and easier to manage if it called it
webserver.qcow2, possibly appending numbers or letters to deal with
filename clashes.
