VBoxManage clonehd should write the destination filename with full path

Description
I would expect the
sudo VBoxManage clonehd bar.vdi foo.vdi
command to write to the current directory as the destination file foo.vdi is not given full path. The actual result is that the destination file is written to
/root/.VirtualBox/HardDisks/
Suggested solution:
VBoxManage clonehd should write the destination filename with full path to stdout, e.g.
< Clone hard disk created in format 'VDI'. -- > Clone hard disk '/root/.VirtualBox/HardDisks/foo.vdi' created in format 'VDI'.
Example:
$ pwd /data/virtualbox/harddisks $ sudo VBoxManage clonehd bar.vdi foo.vdi [sudo] password for foo: Sun VirtualBox Command Line Management Interface Version 3.1.8 (C) 2005-2010 Sun Microsystems, Inc. All rights reserved. 0%...10%...20%...30%...40%...50%...60%...70%...80%...90%...100% Clone hard disk created in format 'VDI'.
