I just want to eliminate some of the existing ones (as a start). </div><div><br></div><div>For example, say I want to eliminate the "volumes" and "instances" panels from the project dashboards. I'd prefer to NOT have to modifying the original system modules deep down in /usr/share/pyshared/horizon/dashboards/nova/dashboard.py.
