So as I mentioned in the etherpad I published a spec here https://review.openstack.org/#/c/135915/ <https://review.openstack.org/#/c/135915/>
Everyone is welcome to review it.
@Juan: For sure we should use keystone for auth. I might have stated it wrong. What I mean is that we should use similar approaches for interacting with end-user as most of openstack clients do.
