[openstack-dev] Returning Deleted Instance on Show

Hello,

I'm working on a project that is cataloging and verifying the notifications
being emitted by Nova. One of the functions of this system is to pull data
from an alternate data source when notifications may have been
missed/dropped. I'm thinking of using the Nova API as this source, but I've
run into an issue. Currently the Nova API returns 404's on shows of deleted
instances even if there is data in the database (thanks to soft-deletes).

I'm wondering what the reason was for this behavior and would it be a good
idea to perhaps return that data if a query param is set (something like
'show_deleted=true').
