Yeah, it's interesting because the names endorsed by the TC are recorded here:

    http://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/governance/tree/reference/programs.yaml

...and while "Image Service appears to be recorded there, "Identity Service" is referred to just as "Identity". I'm not sure there is a method to the madness there :). Which programs get included in core and thus can be prefixed with OpenStack is the domain of the board.
