Another dimension to this problem is the need to filter the image lists returned from glance based on these attributes.<div><br></div><div>I am not fully up to speed on the latest Glance API, but does it include a way to filter on base properties? What about the ability to filter on arbitrary key-value pairs (metadata)?</div>
<div><br></div><div>If we can provide the ability to filter on both of those then I don't think it matters as much what we specify as a base property and what we ask people to implement as a key-value pair. If on the other hand we are only going to provide a way to filter the image lists using base properties then I would argue that we have to be much more inclusive about what we make base properties.</div>
