Open Stack

While I agree with what you're saying, the way the OpenStack clients are traditionally written/designed, the CLI *is* the SDK for those users who want to do scripting in a shell rather than in Python. If we go with your suggestion, we'd probably also want to have the ability to suppress those prompts for folks that want to shell script.

To chip in with a Product Management type hat on, I'd think the CLI should be primarily focused on user experience interaction, and the SDK should be primarily targeted for developer automation needs around programmatically interacting with the service.   So, I would argue that the target market for the CLI should not be the developer who wants to script.
