Bug Description
For the ISO and Simple Disk paths, I'd like to see virt-manager remember previous entries. It would chop off the filename component to get a directory component. If the last element of that were the name of the virtual machine (being created), then that component would be replaced by some marker (%s or whatever) that could be replaced later. Then that directory would be saved. In the future, it would be used as the default in the appropriate field. The ISO and Simple Disk directories should be tracked separately.
For example, if I was created a virtual machine named "foo" and changed my disk path to /srv/virtualmac

Alternatively, a default directory structure would be fine. If you're creating a number of VMs, it's nice to have some consistency.
