We typically reject it for our SQL backend implementation since there are
other ways to configure the Keystone that support the functionality
already. You can configure keystone to use an LDAP backend or you can use
federation. So there's no reason for us to re-implement and support all
this functionality.
That said, if there was a python library that did password complexity
validation that nova was using and it only required a couple of lines of
code in keystone to support it I wouldn't be against it.
