I was batting around some ideas regarding IPAM functionality, and it occurred 
to me that rate-limiting at an API level might come in handy and as an example 
might help provide one level of defense against DoS for an external IPAM 
provider that Neutron might make calls off to.  I'm simply using IPAM as an 
example here, there are a number of other (ie better) reasons for rate-limiting 
at the API level.  I may just be ignorant (please forgive me if I am :) ), but 
I'm not aware of any rate-limiting functionality at the API level in Neutron.  
Does anyone know if such a feature exists that could point me at some 
documentation? If it doesn't exist, has the Neutron community broached this 
subject before? I have to imagine someone has brought this up before and I just 
was out of the loop.  Anyone have thoughts they care to share? Thanks!
