I don't care too much about changing all of the other 
additionalProperties=False in a single microversion given we're already 
kind of inconsistent with this in a few APIs. Consistency is ideal, but 
I thought we'd be lumping in other cleanups from the etherpad into the 
same microversion/spec which will likely slow it down during spec 
review. For example, I'd really like to get rid of the weird server 
response field prefixes like "OS-EXT-SRV-ATTR:". Would we put those into 
the same mass cleanup microversion / spec or split them into individual 
microversions? I'd prefer not to see an explosion of microversions for 
cleaning up oddities in the API, but I could see how doing them all in a 
single microversion could be complicated.
