Sure, the answer is that functions-common is *not* stable interface,
those are available, but subject to change without notice. i.e. use them
if you must, but realize you might need to react quickly chasing those
changes.

Functions in devstack/inc/ are considered a medium strong interface,
those include config file manipulation, python package installation,
rootwrap setup. We'll expand the set of contract functions over time,
but all those adds need to come with in tree unit tests so that we can
prevent accidental regressions on the contract.
