Currently, in order to have a totally independent and updateable AppVM, the user must: 1) clone the template, 2) make the template unupdatble, 3) create the AppVM based on this template.

This is useful if one wishes to have several AppVMs based on the custom template, but a total overkill if one wishes to have just one, independently updateable AppVM.

So, I think it would be useful to allow creation of 'independent' AppVMs, i.e. with own root.img, not based on any other template. Something like this:

qvm-create qubes-devel --label blue --independent
