If you look a little earlier in the thread, you will find a post from me
where I point out just how complicated quota management actually is. I
suggest that it should be developed as a proof-of-concept as a separate
service; from there, we can see whether it makes sense to roll it into
Keystone or maintain it as a separate thing.
