so, instead of using examples where we have header names like "OpenStack-Some-[SERVICE_TYPE]-Header", maybe we should suggest "OpenStack-Some-[SERVICE_TYPE or PROJECT_NAME]-Header" as our guideline.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I think the listed reviews have it right, only referencing service type.
