You could use the standard image properties (https://docs.openstack.org/glance/stein/admin/useful-image-properties.html) to find the image using a query
e.g. os_distro=centos, os_version=7 and sort by upload date

I like the idea of it being discoverable, not defined by using the name - it fits better in my head with the way we are doing interop and allows current clouds to not have to change name formats (which could break other users).
I would love it if we could provide guidance - or maybe even somehow get this in to RefStack or something - that clouds *should* provide that metadata.
At the same time, needing to search for an image (and a flavor) on the cloud makes this:
openstack server boot --image=<image> --flavor=<flavor> foo
a bit harder. Perhaps we could add some parameters ... like:
openstack server boot --image-os=debian --image-version=7
Whohooo! You're still using such an old thing as Wheezy? :) Cheers, Thomas Goirand (zigo)
