Twenty-five prompts asked only "Are you sure?", and on the storage page
one handler asked the same before every button, Start and Enable
included. Each destructive button now names its object and says what
happens: a stopped network cuts running VMs off, a deleted pool keeps
its files, a deleted volume loses its data, a reverted snapshot loses
the changes made since. Saves no longer ask, and disabled buttons lose
prompts they could not show. The VM QoS messages said to restart the
network where the VM has to be powered off and on.

The edit dialog of a secret was filled with its current value, so every
readable secret's value was in the secrets page's HTML. A private
secret, or one with no value yet, cannot be read: its field held the
text "None", which is valid base64, and saving the dialog unchanged set
the secret to the three bytes it decodes to. The dialog now only writes
a new value: the field starts empty, is a password field and is
required. The page no longer reads secret values, and get_secret_value,
used only for that, is gone.
get_secret_value returned bytes, so the edit dialog showed b'cHc=' (the
bytes' repr) for the base64 value cHc=. Saving the dialog as shown fed
"b'cHc='" to b64decode, which dropped the quotes and the b and stored
other bytes: the secret silently changed (pw became m\xc1\xdc). The value
is now base64 text, and set_secret_value decodes with validate=True, so
a value that is not base64 is refused with a message instead. The field
had an invalid pattern ([a-zA-Z0-9]$+, ignored by browsers) and a 45
character limit; it takes base64 of any length.
Rendered through every URL on libvirt's test driver, the pages had
duplicate IDs and markup browsers repaired silently:
- Each flavor modal's "Advanced" button toggled #flav-add-collapse, the
first modal's section; every modal now has its own. The flavor and
template copies of the custom tab's control IDs, and the template
tab's unused images input, are gone.
- The VM page's action icons and the XML editors were styled by
repeated IDs; they use classes.
- Modal forms opened inside modal-body and closed after modal-footer;
they wrap both. Stray end tags and duplicate attributes are removed,
paragraphs no longer hold modals or rows, table heads have a row, and
the create page closes its row and column.
- html lang is the active language instead of "en".
A test walks every URL as a superuser and fails on a repeated ID. The
console page still has no doctype: its full-height layout relies on
quirks mode and needs its own check.
