For registration it is just Management MAC address which is needed 
right? Or does Ironic need also IP? I think that MAC address might be 
enough, we can display IP in details of node later on.

We need both - we need to track services but also state of nodes (CPU, 
RAM, Network bandwidth, etc). So in node detail you should be able to 
track both.

Can you, please be a bit more specific here? I don't understand this note.

Discussed in other threads, but I still believe (and I am not alone) 
that we need to allow 'force nodes'.

It can be auto-allocation. I don't see problem with 'unallocated' term.

Might be M but with higher priority. I see it in the middle. But if we 
have to decide, it can be M.
