Hi, shihanzhang:
Thanks for bringing this up, again.
As I said before, this blueprint will solve the problems that the
'hard-coded' rules related to the default security group we are
suffering from, which I do think will give Fawad an anser. So, I
really hope that we can particapate all together to make this happen
in Kilo.
