[openstack-dev] [nova] why do we have os-attach-interfaces in the v3 API?

If you can add and delete interfaces it seems like being able to list them is useful. You can get the info you need from the networks list when you get the instance, but “nova interface-list” seems like a useful addition if we have “interface-attach” and “interface-detach”, so in this case I think I would suggest that we leave the proxying in and implement it for nova-network as well.
I was looking for an anologue with cinder but it looks like we have a volume-attach and volume-detach there without a volume-list <server> command so if people want to kill it I’m ok with that too.

Personally I don't think it hurts anything, but I'm getting mixed signals about the stance on neutron proxying in the v2.1 API.
