As this change will likely affect Citrix CloudPlatform, I can say that at Datapipe we offer the AWS API endpoint to customers because we had a request for it in the past. It was used once by a customer who then changed to using the native CloudStack API. When this change hits a release of Citrix CloudPlatform, I'm sure we'll probably deploy ec2stack, but I don't see that (and our support team doesn't see that) as a real problem - especially if RPM/Debs of the ec2stack code can be built and distributed.
