Thanks for the feedback  :)

Yes, absolutely. I should have added "For Icehouse" like I did in other 
places. Good catch.

I assumed this sort of thing was captured by the resource status, though 
I'm far from a Heat expert. Is it not enough to assume that if the 
resource started successfully, all of that took place?

Both of these are really good points that I haven't seen discussed yet. 
The wireframes cover the allocation of nodes and displaying basic 
details of what's created (even that is still placeholder) but not much 
beyond that.

I'd like to break that into a separate thread. I'm not saying it's 
unrelated, but since it's not even wireframed out I'd like to have a 
dedicated discussion about what it might look like. I'll start that 
thread up as soon as I collect my thoughts.
