[openstack-dev] FFE Request for moving inherited assignment to core in Keystone

Keystone has, for a number of releases,  supported the concept of inherited role assignments via the OS-INHERIT extension. At the Keystone mid-cycle we agreed moving this to core this was a good target for Liberty, but this was held by needing the data driver testing to be in place  (https://review.openstack.org/#/c/190996/ <https://review.openstack.org/#/c/190996/>).

Inherited roles are becoming an integral part of Keystone, especially with the move to hierarchal projects (which is core already) - and so moving inheritance to core makes a lot of sense.  At the same time as the move, we want to tidy up the API (https://review.openstack.org/#/c/200434/ <https://review.openstack.org/#/c/187045/>) to be more consistent with project hierarchies (before the old API semantics get too widely used), although we will continue to support the old API via the extension for a number of cycles.

I would like to request an FFE for the move of inheritance to core.
