Interesting stuff. I conceptually like the idea of nova-compute doing
the leg work for sub resources (like the network) as it feels like error
handling is simpler given it's closeness to the actual VMs that are
running.
I also like the idea of considering the RPC interface. What kind of
stability / versioning exists on the Neutron RPC interface?
