Open Stack

Regarding item #3:
I have mainly seen this issue on stacks that have been snapshotted:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/heat/+bug/1412965

In such cases, the only way to avoid (afaik) is for the owner to 
manually delete the snapshots prior to deleting the stack.  Heat tries 
to auto-delete snapshots and hangs otherwise.
