[openstack-dev] [nova][qa] user-oriented release notes for v3 api?

As I looked at the havana release notes that talk about the v3 api, and 
as I was reviewing
"port test_images and test_server_actions into v3 part2" 
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/39609/,
I saw some less-than-obvious differences. For example, the images/get it 
seems now goes directly to glance which
results in the returned state being 'active' instead of 'ACTIVE' as it 
was in v2. Another test was changed to expect the state to be
'queued' when it used to be 'SAVING'. There are also all the changes 
regarding CamelCase of dict keywords.

I saw there was work on documenting the v3 api but doesn't there also 
need to be some kind of release note that documents the incompatible 
changes that users need to account for in their client code when they 
start pointing it at a v3 server? Such a document would also make it 
much easier to review the v3 api tests in tempest. Does such information 
exist already?
