Recently I decided to remove deprecated parameters from keystone_authtoken
mistral config and replace them with recommended function of devstack [1].
In doing so, I discovered a strange behavior of configuration mechanism,
and specifically parameters auth_uri and auth_url.

1. The parameter auth_url is not included in the list of the middleware
parameters, there is auth_uri only [2]. Nevertheless, it must be present,
because it's required by identity plugin [3]. Attempts to remove or replace
it with the recommended auth_uri result with these stacktraces [4]

2. Even if auth_url is set, it can't be used later, because it is not
registered in oslo_config [5]

So I would like to get an advise from keystone team and understand what I
should do in such cases. Official documentation doesn't add clarity on the
matter because it recommends to use auth_uri in some cases and auth_url in
others.
My suggestion is to add auth_url in the list of keystone authtoken
middleware config options, so that the parameter can be used by the others.

Best,
Mike
