When I click the Create a Virtual Machine button, I often choose the
"Use EFI" option. I did not realize that this breaks snapshots because
the app doesn't tell me that it will. Also, the snapshot UI is still
there; it just doesn't work.

I wanted to just remove the Use EFI option, but there are some use cases for it.

Thank you,
