One reason is that every line of extra code has a testing and maintenance cost, so the real question isn't 'why shouldn't we add it' but 'is this feature worth the effort'? The combination of filtering and pagination was recently found to be fundamentally broken in cinder (since fixed), and it took some significant time for this to be noticed. The more options you have, the more likely you are to have this sort of combinatorial bug. At the very least, anybody submitting this feature to cinder is going to find themselves writing some /very/ comprehensive unit tests, for both methods of pagination, with and without filtering, if they want to see it merged. _______________________________________________ OpenStack-dev mailing list OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
