Hi Matt,
Something has broken on the way if that shipped schema actually affect
your operation. That should be used _only_ when the client is called
without connection to the Glance API (for example in a case you have
no env set and you call `glance help`), this is btw the reason why we
have that schema shipped with the client.
As soon as you execute a call that actually interacts with Glance API
we should be pulling the schema from there. So if this is not the
case, we've broken somewhere on the way. I'll try to find time to have
a look.
