I thought as of now its the business demand that drives the priority for the blueprints and features. I guess the problem is companies ( like HP and Internap ) have not played a lot around quantum yet. So, we haven't got their feedbacks/comments/needs. If there are some HP and Internap folks here, please correct me if this is wrong.
