[openstack-dev] [glance] Unifying configuration file

Frankly I don't like the idea of using single configuration for all
service too, I think it will be cool if we can generate separated
configuration template files automatically for each Glance service. So
besides https://review.openstack.org/#/c/83327/ , actually I'm working
on that idea as well, to allow deployer generates separated
configuration files on demand, and then probably we could move those
templates away from code repo.

But I like your idea for paste.ini template part.
