I love this plan already.

My biggest regret is that I couldn't figure out how to do this myself. 
Much thanks to the QA team!

This sounds great. My only question is why Cinder tests are still 
included, but I trust that it's there for a reason and I'm just 
revealing my own ignorance of Swift's consumers, however removed.

Correct, and for all the reasons that you're seeking to address. Some 
eight months ago I'd gotten tired of seeing spurious failures that had 
nothing to do with Swift, and I was hard pressed to find an instance 
where the tempest tests caught a regression or behavior change that 
wasn't already caught by Swift's own functional tests. In short, the 
signal-to-noise ratio for those particular tests was low enough that a 
failure only told me "you should leave a recheck comment," so I proposed 
https://review.opendev.org/#/c/601813/ . There was also a side benefit 
of having our longest-running job change from 
legacy-tempest-dsvm-neutron-full (at 90-100 minutes) to 
swift-probetests-centos-7 (at ~30 minutes), tightening developer 
feedback loops.

It sounds like this proposal addresses both concerns: by reducing the 
scope of tests to what might actually exercise the Swift API (if 
indirectly), the signal-to-noise ratio should be much better and the 
wall-clock time will be reduced.

As far as Swift is aware, these dependencies seem accurate; at any rate, 
*we* don't use anything other than Keystone, even by way of another API. 
Further, Swift does not use particularly esoteric Keysonte APIs; I would 
be OK with integrated-gate-identity not exercising Swift's API with the 
assumption that some other (or indeed, almost *any* other) service would 
likely exercise the parts that we care about.
