The only thing is you're on pike where [keystone]/region_name isn't in nova.conf and it's not used, it was added in queens for this lookup:

I was talking about the parameter under [keystone_authtoken] ([keystone_authtoken]/region_name) and not the new one under [keystone] ([keystone]/region_name). It seems that we were talking about different parameters though so this explains that.

I will attempt this next week. Will update if I run into any issues. Also, from experience, most Openstack services seem to pick a random endpoint when region_name isn’t specified in a multi-region cloud. I’ve seen that several times ever since I've built and started maintaining this infrastructure.
