[Openstack] Standardizing External APIs

I'm skeptical, because usually ticket creation has to be a two way 
interaction because the entity asking for the ticket has to know that it 
succeeded end to end and should receive a URI back so that they can 
record it.

There should be a well defined API that forms the boundary between 
OpenStack specific code and backend integration code. You could use a 
push API, but you'd have to listen to it with a client that was aware of 
OpenStack semantics. There's no reason an incident service would want to 
maintain that and you wouldn't want them too, either.
