This looks similar to what was being worked on in nova for the purge instances command [1]. As noted elsewhere in this thread, the blueprint for that is going to be re-proposed for Ocata since it missed the freeze for Newton.

It'd be good to collaborate on these tools within Nova so that we can unit test them with the rest of the code base to make sure we don't regress this functionality when new tables are added (we have a functional test that boots a server and then deletes it and makes sure we can archive/purge).

The main difference from the CERN script is going to be in the cells v1 support, which is probably not something we'll bake into the command that lives in nova since cells v1 is frozen as we work on cells v2 support.
