[Openstack-security] Request to review OSSN

I might be missing something obvious, but wouldn't making the VNC token
from nova-consoleauth a one-time use token solve this problem? I.e. once a
user successfully connects to their console with an authorized token it
won't work for future connections.  Then the rate-limiting of the Nova API
would suffice, which should be presumed to already be in-place and
configured.  Does that break other things?

Thanks,

Nate
