Note: it is possible to further restrict the dispVM by specifying the template it's based on with the `@dispvm:templatename` syntax. See the [official doc](https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/disposablevm/#opening-a-link-in-a-disposablevm-based-on-a-non-default-disposablevm-template-from-a-qube) for further details. Notes about the `@dispvm` syntax:
- it is possible to further restrict the target dispVM by specifying the template it's based on with the `@dispvm:templatename` syntax. See the [official doc](https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/disposablevm/#opening-a-link-in-a-disposablevm-based-on-a-non-default-disposablevm-template-from-a-qube) for further details.
- caveat: `@dispvm` means "DisposableVMs based on the default DisposableVM template of the calling VM", not "*any* DisposableVMs". If you were to run `qvm-open-in-vm @dispvm:web https://www.qubes-os.org` with the policy sample above and `web` wasn't the default dvm template for the calling VM, `@anyvm @dispvm allow` wouldn't be matched and you'd be shown the selection dialog window because of the last `ask` line.
