In order to use `web-download` in image resource, we need to create an empty image than use import to upload that imge. I have try that scenrio by myself now (I'm not really diving into detail yet) by: 1. create an empty image(like `openstack image create --container-format bare --disk-format qcow2 img_name`) 2. and than import image (like `glance image-import --import-method web-download --uri https://download.cirros-cloud.net/0.3.5/cirros-0.3.5-x86_64-disk.img `) But that image stuck in queued after first step. dose this scenario supported by glance?
