Happy to see someone paying attention to this issue.
Just to reassume here, for our use case the important things are:
1) not need to change/detach root volume live, but only in shutoff or even a new "maintenance" state (if this could help with other problems)
2) destroying and creating another VM is not an option for us because we have windows OS aboard and changing the VM raises some serious problems: license loss, cloudbase-init restart (it's the windows declination of cloud-init), to name a few.
