IMO templates could easily be implemented with a script. Also, the more I think about it, they probably should be implemented that way, since this kind of policy often gets overly complex when you try to implement a general solution, and the script solution is just fine for us.<div>
<br></div><div>If you're interested in quotas, we have a completely different problem with quotas that is a real showstopper for us. We have a really large dynamic range in resource quantities for our different instance types. (for example, we have 3 orders of magnitudes in the range of memory configurations). This makes quotas pretty useless for us as they are currently implemented, since you can't represent limits for these different kinds of resources in the same quota. Something like per-instance-type quotas would at least allow us to restrict users to a fixed number of instances of a given type, bypassing the current quota mechanism. </div>
