As pointed out by Dmitriy, the web-download method for the image import is a replacement for the "copy from" feature of v1.

It is my understanding that the copy_from attribute isn't currently implemented in Glance v2. As we slowly add proper support for v2 to Horizon [3] it would be really helpful if there was a way to create an image given a URL when using v2 also. If this is already tracked somewhere else, please me know! Thank you.
