While I agree that we can implement something in a private patch, this
is something we are trying very hard to much away from.
If Nova proposes using the placement API for such use cases, I think
it should also provides the same features as the replaced solutions
because people could have relied on those.
And suggesting a configuration management system is enough was
unfortunately a false assumption.
I still have to figure out how a workflow based on placement will be
feasible for us.
But as I said, the lack of granular ACLs is a huge concern for us and
I don't know how it can be addressed in the near future.
