Alternative applications for libvirt/kvm/qemu other than virt-manager (gui)? (lemmy.zip)

I find virt-manager hard to use, and not easily configurable, XML is the easiest but I don't always want to configure my vms in either a command-line or XML directly, is there any graphical alternative to virt-manager that uses the entire or part of the stack?

GNOME Boxes. Much simpler to set up.

It can auto-download operating system ISOs from the internet, but if you already have the ISOs, it works too.

On my machine, virt-manager mysteriously fails, but Boxes works fine.
