Given that launchpad lets us target a change against multiple projects, 
what if we created openstack-api as it's own top level project. So a 
change could be targeted at OS API v3 and glance. Or OS APIv3 and nova, etc?

Maybe someone with more launchpad-fu would have better suggestions, but 
it would be really good to come up with some consistent way to track 
things we want to change for consistency.
