<font size="3" face="serif">Speaking of, there are currently three headers that were deprecated prior to the release of essex (i.e. they were documented as deprecated in both essex and folsom), and could be reviewed for removal in grizzly (HTTP_X_USER, HTTP_X_ROLE, HTTP_X_TENANT).</font><br>

<ul style="padding-left: 9pt"><font size="3" face="sans-serif">After a user gets authenticated, each following request will have a header named HTTP_X_SERVICE_CATALOG which contains service end point links, can any one tell me if it is safe to use the information contained in the header to get the various end points from a filter in the pipeline? Notice this header is set in the keystone, any other implementation of keystone may choose not to include the information in the header, can anyone tell me putting the endpoints in the headers is required by any implementation like keystone for authentication?</font><font size="3" face="serif"><br>
