I am unsure of how varied the use of Keystone is outside of KeystoneMiddleware (i.e. token validation) consumption that all services perform, Heat (not part of the integrated gate) and it's usage of Trusts, and some newer emerging uses such as "look up limit data" (potentially in Train, would be covered by Nova). Worst case, we could run all the integrated tests for Keystone changes (at least initially) until we have higher confidence and minimize the tests once we have a clearer audit of how the services use Keystone. The changes would speed up/minimize the usage for the other services directly and Keystone can follow down the line.

Let's keep running the all service tests for keystone gate as of now and later we can shorten the tests run based on the clarity of usage.  

We can disable the ssh validation for  "Integrated-gate-identity" which keystone does not need to care about. This can save the keystone gate for ssh timeout failure.
