             Summary: Add additional properties/logic to ec2 snapshot calls
                 Key: LIBCLOUD-480
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LIBCLOUD-480
             Project: Libcloud
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Compute
            Reporter: Chris DeRamus
            Priority: Trivial


The create_volume_snapshot call does not currently tag the instance if the name keyword argument is passed in. It treats name as the description which in my eyes is misleading. I'd like to add a description keyword argument and use that as the description parameter and if name is set actually tag the newly created resource to remain consistent with other resource creation calls. 

_to_snapshot will also be updated with new properties (progress/start time) and will get the resource tags. The extra dict will also be built using the recently created _get_extra_dict to make adding additional properties easier in the future.
