While this isn't entirely what you were asking for, there is an admin only
extension called os-hosts (nova host-list in the CLI) that Lists all hosts
by service along with zone.

$ nova host-list

+-----------+-------------+----------+
| host_name | service     | zone     |
+-----------+-------------+----------+
| precise64 | cert        | internal |
| precise64 | compute     | nova     |
| precise64 | conductor   | internal |
| precise64 | consoleauth | internal |
| precise64 | network     | internal |
| precise64 | scheduler   | internal |
+-----------+-------------+----------+
