That's debatable.

Pushing events is IMHO out of scope of Ceilometer – it's related to
oslo.messaging notification at this point. So if we want to allow that
via an API endpoint, we should build one in OpenStack over
oslo.messaging. Good idea or not, I don't know.

Pushing samples is probably doable with some kind of small API, but I am
not sure it's worth anything. You could still directly push the data to
Gnocchi and save some you some load. Unless you have transformers to
apply, but… really?
