Team,

Current State: say there's a flag in nova.conf (debug=True), then
--debug and --nodebug on the command line has no effect by design.
Config file entry basically wins every time.

There are 2 bugs, one against glance and one against nova-manage where
people were surprised at this behavior.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/glance/+bug/1156877

Does anyone remember how things used to work in Folsom? (I won't ask
how you would prefer it to work :)
