This definitely seems worth supporting, we'll just have to figure out 
how to do it in libvirt.  Right now we support virtio, sata, or ide as 
the diskbus for a disk, and if it's as easy as just changing that 
option, then we can have support very quickly.

The CustomVM class actually has support for this.  If you pass a VM XML 
definition file with multiple interfaces, it will rewrite them all to 
have random mac addresses.  The class supports specifying a list of mac 
addresses to use for the interfaces, but the frontend script doesn't 
currently have a way to pass that in.  If you want that, I can add it 
very quickly, but even without any changes, we should support an 
arbitrary number of NICs, we'll just be using random mac addresses for them.
